• I moved into my condo in 2010. The bathroom includes a vanity mirror with 6 incandescent bulbs over it. I only have 3 on at any given time since all 6 on at the same time is annoyingly bright. I want to replace them but it seems wasteful to chuck them in the garbage when they still work.

    • It’s a milligram of tungsten and a few grams of glass and steel.

      On the other hand they’re only on a few minutes a day. Not really something to be concerned about either way.
