What are you doing to have an environmentally hazardous Christmas?

Question

I make sure I wrap my presents in brand new wrapping paper, using brand new bows. I'm running my Christmas lights all the time, and boy, what a display! I'm serving ham, potatoes, breads, and all kinds of sweets, as well as many alcoholic beverages. My SUV idles in mall traffic, trying to buy lead-laced toys for the kids. I'm also stocking up on incandescent light bulbs. So what are you doing to say "s***w you" to al gore & the enviro-n***s this holiday season?

Answer 1

I'm eating baked sweet potatoes with butter.

Answer 2

well:

1)  I am using pleanty of hot water,

2) I have a lot of lights and electronics on.  

3) My car is old and burns oil and my tire pressure is low.

4) I"m consuming plastic, and not recycling most of it.

Answer 3

First of all, Gore is probably whooping it up with some fancy light display, he is just using LED's.  His kWhrs on his electric bill are vast as is the square footage of his home.

I am using electricity from my own solar panels, wrapping presents in last 2-5 years worth of bags and paper, the kids are not getting any plastic toys.  All the food on our table was grown by us, except for a few spices.  We even made the wine from our own orchard.  We have one string of LEDs on the living tree which we will plant on the 26th.  I did go into town today and get a couple of stocking stuffers at the local artisan co op, but I drove the Honda Insight with the bumper sticker "At least the war on the environment is going well."

I won't tell you what to do as I don't consider myself an enviro-n**i, but more of a live and let live sort, but I do hate those hummers, and try to park the hybrid next to them when I get the chance.

Merry Christmas

Namaste

etc.

What is your problem?

Answer 5

I'm saying Merry Christmas to everyone I meet, I always buy and use brand new wrapping paper, bows, tissue paper and boxes.  We have many lights on the house and in the house and they have all been on since last night.  I served ham, potato salad, deviled eggs, and lots of sweet sugary stuff.  Tons of candy.  I send out Christmas cards every year that are not made on recycled paper (yuk!!!).  My kids got too much stuff, as they always do, from Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles.  Um, I'm sure there's more, but I'm full and I want to take a nap in my bed chamber now.  Happy Christmas to all and to all a Good Night!
