That's so funny. The article was article was written by an Action
Network user not the BBC"!

I don't recall claiming that it was written by the BBC. Feel free to
tell us where I did.

Using the figures from the article you cite we have:
CFL - 6mg total manufacture + 2.4mg from power stations = total 8.4mg

As the article points out, the mercury in the lamp can be recycled.

But there was no way you were going to spot that because you are a
credulous innumerate!

Excellent, more personal attacks. Do keep them up.
