Green Tip: LED Christmas Lights

I try to be green when possible and I am always interested in any new way to make my home more energy efficient.  If you are like me, you probably know that LED lights are more green but do you know why?  LED (light-emitting diode) Christmas lights use up to 90% less energy than standard Christmas lights depending on bulb size, only emit a small amount of heat and can last up to 20 years.  Since they barely give off heat they are a lot safer to use on Christmas Trees and just in case you have little ones, LED lights are cool to the touch!
