Public-Private Partnership Unveils Nationwide Campaign to Raise Awareness About Global Warming and Rally Americans to Help Make a Change.

Yahoo! (NASDAQ:YHOO):

WHAT:   It takes about 18 seconds to replace a conventional
        incandescent bulb with an ENERGY STAR-labeled compact
        fluorescent light bulb (CFL).

        This simple step and its ability to significantly reduce
        environmental impact are the driving forces behind the
        18Seconds Coalition - a cross sector partnership that will
        formally launch at the semi-annual 18Seconds.org CFL Summit.
        Riding on America's renewed interest in energy efficiency and
        global warming, the Coalition will announce its goals and
        initiatives to help America switch to the energy-saving CFLs.

        A coinciding Web site, www.18Seconds.org - built by Yahoo!
        in collaboration with the Coalition - also will launch at the
        summit. The site provides a unique tool to monitor sales of
        CFLs by zip code, metropolitan area and state.

WHY:    If each of the 300 million Americans in the country swapped
        out just one conventional 60W bulb to a 13W ENERGY
        STAR-labeled CFL, it would prevent the burning of 30 billion
        pounds of coal, save $8 billion in energy costs and prevent
        2 million cars worth of greenhouse gas emissions. The purpose
        of this Coalition is to empower every individual in the
        country. By taking 18 seconds to change a light bulb,
        Americans can join a movement that could change the country.
