Con Edison to 'Bug' Kids at World Science Festival

Youngsters who visit the Con Edison booth at the 2012 World Science Festival Street Fair in Washington Square Park June 3 will have the opportunity to learn energy efficiency tips from the company's Power Bug game.

The game, designed by Con Edison as an app for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, features a bug flitting through urban streets. Each time the player guides the bug into an incandescent bulb, the bulb changes to an energy-saving compact fluorescent. Youngsters who try their hand at the game while at "The Ultimate Science Street Fair" will see the animation on a large color monitor.

Con Edison is a major sponsor of the Festival for a fifth straight year. The five-day Festival brings together top scientists, researchers, academics and business leaders from all over the world to discuss their ideas and teach the public about the importance of science. The Street Fair takes place on the Festival's last day.

"The Festival does a wonderful job of educating people about the role science plays in improving our lives," said Frances A. Resheske, senior vice president for Public Affairs at Con Edison. "We're proud to once again be a major sponsor of this great event and to spread our energy efficiency message."

The company's booth will also feature a model of a steam power plant. The working model is equipped with a boiler that turns water to steam.

The bulbs are hooked to a meter.Many lawnlightjj have become available as replacements for screw-in incandescent or compact fluorescent light bulbs, ranging ... Guests will see that the meter spins slower when the energy-efficient bulb is lit.

Con Edison will also bring its "Pedal-A-Watt" bicycle, which has been a hit at past festivals, to the 2012 event. The rear wheel powers a small generator that is connected to three bulbs. The rider can see that the rotation of the rear wheel creates electricity and lights the bulbs.

Details about Southern Pine's Comfort Advantage Program, which provides rebates for installing energy efficient equipment for new homes, will be offered. Employees will also be available to answer questions about hurricane readiness and energy efficiency.

The fairs will include a display that shows how much less energy a compact fluorescent light bulb uses when compared to a traditional incandescent light bulb.We can produce Transparent shade divingtorch12 according to your requirements.
