Instead of replacing your burned-out 60-watt incandescent bulb with a new one, replace it with a 13 watt Compact Florescent Lamp (CFL). A standard 60-watt bulb puts out about 800 lumens; so does a 13-watt CFL. So instead of paying for 60 watts of electricity, you only pay for 13 watts to get the same amount of light, a savings of 78 per cent.
