    I wasn't talking about developing world as a market for light bulbs. I was talking about so called 1-st world closing their market for traditional lightbulb makers.

    Why do you need a proof for ill-health? CFL contain mercury, incandescent bulbs don't. Both are in many places at home, both break at times, often in presence of children. What's to prove?
    Does the fact that "most people have a mini toxic lab under their sink" justify adding more toxicity (under the flag of environmental friendliness)?
    Water in many developed countries (including Ireland) is toxic, poisoned with fluoride (which is being gradually banned from toothpaste by EU). Does that justify forcing toxic light bulbs into the market?
