There was just a news report on with a very unscientific estimate of the
additional CO2 pumped into the air each year because of only modest holiday
lighting in the US alone (not counting commercial or civic displays). It
was $75 million of electricity and around 140 million tons of CO2. That
doesn't begin to count the additional pollutants due to additional driving
during the season.
Just think if those pollutants weren't emitted and that money was used to
fund alternative energy.

I fully aware of that Fiso. Unlike many others, assuming that the world not
goes completely wild, I have the recourses to find another home.
My point was just to make the list know that I am personally affected by
the
topic. In other words. I'm not debating just for the fun of the game.
I think it is fair towards the list explaining my commitment.

Half meter rise means death for millions of people around the world.
