Goodbye For Now
I blame electricity waste on people like Al Gore... He probably uses more electricity running the air conditioner in his house in one day than all the dsl/cable modems in the United States running constantly for a month...
Goodbye For Now
Ooops... Hit the enter key...
Goodbye For Now
I've known more than a couple "hippies" who were into "the technology". As for me, I think affluent people living in an industrialized, high-tech world have a responsibility to be self-critical about possible negative repercussions of their petro-electro-centric lifestyle--for people the world over, for the only habitable planet within reach, and for own health and happiness. That said, I haven't turned my DSL modem off in about 3 years, and I was under the impression that stuff like that uses a negligible amount of electricity.
re: Goodbye For Now
I would like to say not everyone feels like the flamers. I thought it was a great hint. Yes, it was a hint. I'm sorry you got flamed and I totally agree with your thoughts, especially on your blog. I am one of the 5.5% in your poll. Where I live, most of our power comes from hydroelectricity. While many say it is green power, the animals and people who's land got flooded by the building of the dams might say otherwise. |
