Environmentalism

Currently I enjoy finding all the little things I can easily do to conserve energy. I've employed the compact fluorescent bulbs in my most commonly used light fixtures, and will swap them into the new locations as bulbs burn out. I adjust the thermostat when I leave the house. And the newest application came in selecting the background for this blog. Some suggest that if Google altered its homepage to a black back-ground, ridiculous amounts of power would be saved just in the amount of energy difference required to light computer monitors world-wide. Now, I know that this blog will never have Google's traffic, but if every person adjusted their websites accordingly, the power consumption would diminish significantly. With that said, my first Blog has a dark, background, as does my myYahoo page (which houses my dozens of bookmarks).
