Odd, that is not what the Gore groupies are saying around here.

California effectively mandated CFLs and FLs in 2005 for new homes,
mandating that screw type fixtures not be installed.  (Title 24).   That
will mean a net increase in mercury in landfills until there are provisions
for separate disposal of dead FL and CFL bulbs.

Good overview here:  http://www.ccidc.org/pdf/2005%20Res%20Lighting2.pdf
