Earth Day, turn those amps OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pam was my singing teacher. I went for a lesson on the day after she died not knowing what had happened. I was ringing her bell and calling her name outside her condo when a neighbor came out to tell me what happened. I nearly fainted. A great tragedy.

i graduated from Amherst about a decade ahead of pam and you and Hampshire College’s existence.

• stop eating beef and meat in general
• stop driving trucks and SUVs
• stop using the AC all the time
• stop wasting water
• stop buying new and "Fiji water" when used and local will do
• ...etc.

Otherwise you are a big problem

@elliottbnewcombjr , Thank you for the clarification, I suffer from being too serious and must constantly be reminded of “ Rule 62 “. Being in a less serious state of mind I usually default to “ Despicable Me “ and the first thing that comes to mind is a Minion saying BANANA . 😆  @hilde45 , interesting equation regarding air travel. I pulled up my solar app and last year my system prevented 10.3 tons of CO2 from being released. FWIT my son in law is a Navy jet pilot instructor and he flys 4-5 days per week. I can only imagine what the Artemis rocket produced when it punched that massive hole in the atmosphere. 

@parkergetdean - those are all wise suggestions:

I long for the day when there is real cloned "artificial meat" without raising and killing animals.

I don't drive at all. I haven't even been on an airplane since 2020. 

I live in San Francisco, and with our weather, not many people have A/C if they have windows that open. We use heat a lot during our summers, though!

Our tap water tastes great and that is just about the only thing I drink. 

And I turn off my gear when not in use (except for my DAC). 

Tiny carbon footprint, me... 

"real cloned artificial meat"

Everything man-made has risks. Due your own due diligence before blindly trusting anything dietary especially that which is "cloned".
