Three inaccuracies
1)
C and O are separate elements and should both be capital in CO2
2)
any type of electric light source does not generate (or leak) CO2, it
is made by the powerplant.
If you have zero-emmission power (wind, solar, hydro), your light
is CO2-free
3)
light bulbs do NOT "contain" a vacuum
they are filled with an inert gas, such as argon or krypton
