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

@thecarpathian not corporate consumption. Satisfying supply demand. Sell all your electronics and go off grid. Help keep the planet safe. 
Trust me we’re not going to kill the planet by keeping our amps on. No sir. It’s been here for 4.5bil years. It will swallow you and me with all our amps, cables and vinyl records then schiit us out without even noticing. Don’t sweat it. 

@audphile1 ,

Not sweating it, just pointing out there are steps we can take to minimize our consumption. That's why I wash dishes by hand, and hang the laundry on the line whenever the weather permits, to name a couple. We're still going to consume, no question. As far as the Earth goes, I'm surprised it hasn't cooked up a plague to get rid of us all.

@thecarpathian you are heating water unless you wash dishes with ice cold water and even then water purification and delivery runs on natural resources. Hard to imagine some of us don’t see a bigger picture. Earth Day is there to make you feel better. It’s as legitimate as valentine’s day just much more useless. 
Nothing you do or don’t do has any impact on the lifespan of this planet. Because you continue to consume even if you think you don’t. There’s absolutely not a microsecond of your life where you stop making impact. It isn’t a thing.

As long as we don’t maliciously destroy things, we’re good.

By the way controlling the population is absolutely not a terrible idea. Some places on this planet are out of control. The long term impact of that particular problem is much more severe than me keeping my dac and phono stage on 24/7. 

Yes, but washing and drying dishes by hand consumes less energy than a dishwasher.

Nothing you do or don’t do has any impact on the lifespan of this planet. 

True, but it impacts the health of the planet. Healthy planet, healthy flora and fauna.

Unhealthy planet, unhealthy flora and fauna.

Like I said, if enough of us do the smallest things in a positive direction, it lessens the impact.
