Well, Its another night in The Stables and things are going well.
We have had another vegetarian meal tonight. We have found that vege rissottos can be very tasty!
However the power use and carbon discussion continues.
We are sitting here in the dark watching another “thrilling” episode of desperate housewives discussing
our power sources. We have been thinking that it is actually probably better to use eco bulbs than it is to use candles.
In NZ, especially at night, when our overall power consumption as a nation is at the lowest we generally use just renewable sources like hydro and not coal or often not even gas etc, so to use eco bulbs in the evening is actually better than candles as candles contain led and are putting carbons directly into the environment. So the best option is no power at all or very little!
So therefore we believe that it is best to sit in the dark, and let ourselves have one luxury of the tv!
So thats our thoughts for now. Time to switch of the laptop!
