Lightbulbs to Leadership: Pushing lawmakers to think outside the lightbulb

Got a lightbulb joke? Send it in to Sierra Club, which today kicked off its new campaign, Lightbulbs to Leadership. The goal: to "remind Americans that it takes more than changing lightbulbs to fix global warming –- it takes changing the will of our leaders." Here's the front page joke on the Lightbulbs to Leadership site right now:

Q. How many conservatives does it take to change a lightbulb?
A.
None. They liked the old one so much that nothing could compare to it.

The campaign's trying to spread the message with short animated parodies, all themed around lightbulb jokes.

Lightbulbs to Leadership won't be all sarcastic doom and gloom; the campaign will also highlight the economic benefits of moving toward a Clean Energy Economy. So send in your best joke -- and push our leaders to do more than just change their lightbulbs.

Sadly, the city of L.A. hasn't even managed to change out its lightbulbs yet -- costing taxpayers like you and me millions in inflated energy costs.
