Is it better to leave lights switched on or off?



This could turn out to be a week of very short posts....

In answer to the question is it better to leave the lights switched off or on when leaving a room, particularly with fluorescent 'strip' lights and the newer 'energy saving' lightbulbs, which can take a while to 'warm up'?

The Times (Online) last week published a definitive answer.

I won't spoil the ending by revealing it here - head over to The Times Online website and read their rather excellent editorial piece - click here.
