On October 1, 2008, in approximately 22,000 Subway restaurants in the
USA, an incandescent light bulb will be replaced with one Philips,
energy efficient, compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulb.
By partnering with Philips Lighting Company and Specialty Lighting to participate in the Change a Light, Change the World campaign, the Subway restaurant chain is trying to encourage Americans to help change the world, the food chain added.
Energy Star is a joint program of the US Environmental Protection Agency and US Department of Energy in encouraging Americans to take the Energy Star Pledge to Change a Light/Change the World.
Bill Schettini, chief marketing officer of Subway, said: "It's a natural fit for our franchisees to participate in the Energy Star Change A Light, Change the World program as they can easily demonstrate the power just one person can have joining with others to create a significant global impact on the environment."
