For Earth day, I drove around in a 1995 Chevrolet van,
releasing carbon dioxide. I serviced coolers that contain
freon. Didn't release any, I just did electrical work on
them. I helped capitalists sell consumer goods to people.
Consumer goods manufactured with petroleum and energy and
natural resources. I used gasoline, oil, electricity,
worked on freon units, and drove on rubber tires. I filled
the gas tank of my van with irreplacable fossil fuel. I
turned on lights when I got home, thus ordering the use of
nuclear fuel at the local power plant. I spent time on the
computer, enjoying the information age. As it gets colder
tonight, I'll burn natural gas in my furnace (I can hear it
behind me....) thus spewing recklessly more carbon monoxide
and carbon dioxide into the air.
Life is good.

well,nuclear plants are used in baseload operation,and coal-fired for
adjusting load with changes in demand.
so,you probably used coal and spewed more carbon into the air.....B-)

right now,I've got my incandescant lamp illuminating my keyboard.
a wasteful 130v bulb(lasts -much- longer) on a dimmer.
the last 130v bulb in this fixture lasted 15 years.
One 130v bulb in my bath has lasted 23 years.
they don't make them like that anymore!

CY: I can just hear all those plants hungrilly sucking up
the carbon dioxide, and turning it to simple sugars.

a wasteful 130v bulb(lasts -much- longer) on a dimmer.
CY: Now, that's a good way to go.
the last 130v bulb in this fixture lasted 15 years.
One 130v bulb in my bath has lasted 23 years.
they don't make them like that anymore!
CY: Try keeping the bulb dry, they last longer that way.
Don't have the bulb in your bath tub with you.

My computer is in the basement with very little ambient light from
windows. I have a Logitech keyboard with back lit keys. I do have a desk
lamp with a 13 V CFL lighting the desk top to find things. The only
other lighting I use in this basement on a regular basis are the
stairway lights, which are only on after dark.
