That's good news. Energy efficiency should include the energy of production and I think we can reliably guess that the cost of producing the old incadescent bulbs is easily one third that of these plastic and circuit incrusted pieces of junk.

If you want increased efficiency and energy saving, go with the good old flourescent tubes. They give more light per watt than the incadescent filament bulbs and less heat and they are produced just about everywhere in factories that have been around for decades. You can put them in your house, it's as easy as pie.
