Couple of other things on my mind this evening, first of all, Earth Hour, yesterday, which I totally forgot about (doh!) though probably most of our lights were off anyway. I read some stuff afterwards that suggested that turning everyone's lights off for an hour and then on again, would cause a surge that meant that our generally inefficient generating system (at least in the UK) would actually burn more fuel to cope with the swing, than would otherwise have been burnt. But of course, one way or another, if it highlights to people the impact they can make for good or bad, then that's surely no bad thing.
The other thing is that an environmental group is planning to demonstrate outside work tomorrow. No idea why other than possibly that we (the company) invests its money in lots of carbon-creating businesses. We shall see at approx 08.00 tomorrow!
