Everywhere we turn these days we’re being pushed to be green. But it’s tough. I’ve tried switching to flourescent lightbulbs, but most of my light switches have dimmers (I’ve put them there - I love being able to dim the lights in just about every room in my house for various and sundry reasons). I think I have 2 or 3 places where I have lights without dimmers and those have been switched to the flourescent bulbs. But what’s the campaign push - if everyone were to replace 5 lights in their houses with flourescent bulbs, it would be like taking 300,000 cars off the road - or something to that effect? So I feel guilty about only making it to 2 or 3. But here’s an easy answer - by telecommuting I’m taking pretty much a whole car off the road singlehandedly! So let’s change the campaign. If everyone were to telecommute and take a car off the road, it would be like… it would be like… well, you get the idea!
