Warning & Safety
Breaking a lamp is extremely unlikely to have any impact on your health. If a lamp breaks, ventilate the room for 30 minutes and remove the parts, preferably with gloves. Put them in a closed plastic bag and take it to your local waste facilities for recycling. Do not use a vacuum cleaner.
Compact fluorescent lamps have to be treated as special waste: they must be taken to your local waste facilities for recycling. The European lighting industry has set up an infrastructure capable of recycling mercury, other metals, glass, etc.
