Damn the environment, light that bulb

Today's theme - People who like to flex their carbon foot print - Christmas Light Shows:





New York State used appx. 99,521,135 Mega watts over the holiday season last year.  To put that in some context, that's just slightly less than Vietnam uses in energy over an entire year (101,000,000 MW).





A typical household uses about $11 extra a month to light their household Christmas decorations.  Some extreme household decorators can spend an extra $2,000 to light their displays!





It's nice to see that the public is helping support the public utilities.  You know that they are barely eking out a living.


And so it goes.
