In honor of Earth Hour, I’ve got a bunch of lights on, the TV and computers running, and the air conditioning is on.
As an added bonus, I made plans with the neighbor tonight to cut down a big honeysuckle bush that sits on the property line using a chain saw with a two-stroke motor. Nothing like that wonderful blue smoke. This was after I mowed the lawn with my dirty old powermower, which according to my enviro-hippie barista, kills little baby birds every time the engine fires.
What are you all doing to make a difference?

/ April 1, 2012Huh. I didn't realize that was tonight. It says 8:30, but I don't know which 8:30. I assume they mean “their” 8:30, which is Eastern Time. That means I was out mowing the lawn with my riding mower. That's ok, though because it runs on kitten juice which is proven not to harm the environment. We also drove around town today taking the kids to different places to have fun. I've converted the car to run on Spotted-Owl and Black Rhinocerous extract. The environment is safe with me.

/ April 2, 2012Oh, I completely didn't notice. I mean, given an hour is a uniquely Sol III rotation-based unit of time, every “hour” is an “Earth hour.” This will become far more apparent when we establish our independent ventures and rebelling-as-soon-as-the-infrastructure-can-handle-it colonies.
