Enough of this conservation crap. It's time we got serious about energy -- and started wasting it.


OK, so in case you didn't guess from the video, or have absolutely no sense of humor -- yes, this is a joke. The man in the video was imagined by Together.com, a website that provides easy ways people can prevent (not incite) climate change.

From the site:
Dan Power, the energy wasting guy, is our April Fool – and he really is a fool. A 'grade A' fool. OK, we know he's kind of funny, but people like him are messing with our planet every day.

Let's face it, wasting energy is a rather silly thing to do: it's throwing money and the climate down the drain.

And they're right. While I doubt there's anyone who hates the environment so much that they'd actively try and destroy it, chances are you probably share an energy-wasting habit or two with Dan (I know I do). So, while you're laughing at the video, you might also take a moment to think about how you can reduce your impact -- at home, in the car, and at the office.
