I sure hope you were posting this tongue in cheek.

Of course.

It all depends on how we want to destroy the planet.

By using more energy and putting more carbon into the atmosphere. [100 watt bulbs]

Or

By putting more toxic crap into landfill. [All the nasty chemicals and heavy metals in CFL's]



Can't really win, either way...

It all comes down to MARKETING!!!

As for Earth Hour...

The view from my 20th floor condo, I couldn''t tell the difference. There were a few office buildings downtown that turned the lights off between 8:30 and 9:30 this evening, but all the street lights and many other lights stayed on.

The city may have been a little dimmer, but it didn't get dark.
