Anyone know how do I dispose of it safely/greenly?

You could ask your council if they have any special facilities.
If it was a personal purchase, and not a business purchase,
you can send it back to the supplier for them to dispose of it
free of charge (although I don't think they have to pay the
return P&P costs).

However, at the moment, in the UK pretty much all domestic
fluorescent lamp waste just goes in regular landfill, and most
schemes that involve trying to deal with returning one lamp
for green disposal will generate more polution than the lamp
contains, such as driving to some recycling facility. These
lamps have a disposal tax on them for paying for safe disposal,
but there don't seem to be any schemes in place yet for
collecting them from domestic waste.

Before the lamp died, did you find it worked well.
How long did it last?
What sort of fitting and position was it run in?
