All bulbs? Not incandescents.
For some information go here and read

Another interesting site is:
http://www.newmoa.org/prevention/mercury/lamprecycle/tclp.cfm
I find this interesting especially because they point out that, even if a "green" flourescent has passed the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure test, if they go to an incinerator, all the mercury, etc. gets into the atmosphere anyway.
But incandescent bulbs do not contain mercury, and are not subject to the TCLP test.On Umbra on replacing light bulbs posted 3 years, 5 months ago 19 Responses
