...  hehehehhehehehehheheheheeee. Not normally one to fall into a giggle fit, but this was just too great.

[whosyourcaddy]

wtf

[mind0fighter]

haha! funny ad :)

unfortunately these energy saving bulbs have toxic heavy metals in them. very harmful to our environment and dangerous if one breaks in a room (releasing harmful vapours). but the general message to not waste energy is important.

[cenzano17]

excéntrico ¿eh? ;)

I like the video.

but I dont get why the ass?

[ernilion]

(continued)

Here is what I have just said in my last post, but said far better (lol): Mercury is a toxic metal associated with contamination of water, fish, and food supplies, and can lead to adverse health affects. A CFL bulb generally contains an average of 5 mg of mercury (about one-fifth of that found in the average watch battery, and less than 1/100th of the mercury found in an amalgam dental filling). A power plant will emit 10mg of mercury to produce the electricity to run an CONTINUED

[ernilion]

As a response to the fact that energy efficient light bulbs contain mercury, it requires far more mercury (from power plants) to run a non-energy efficient light bulb.  So, in reality, the energy efficient light bulb IS better after all. (continued)

[koxinha86]

wtf kind of video is this? I mean seriously, if you want to "save the world" thats one thing, but wow. I mean, who knows, maybe the sun does shine out my ... well.. you know. Does that mean I still have to use their wonderful mercury filled lightbulbs? Just wondering.

[b00bieb0y]

... (welches ich mir ja nun nicht mehr leisten kann, da der strom ja dann teurer wurde, damit die einnahme-einbußen der konzerne wieder ausgeglichen werden) - (was sich eh nach diesen oben erwähnten 6 monaten von allein wieder erledigt hätte) ?!? ...

da stimmt doch vor allem an ganz anderen stellen was nicht! und die möchte ich nicht mit meinem arsch illuminieren, sondern zuscheißen, denn die sind es, die das klima zerstören!

[b00bieb0y]

greenpeace find ich gut, aber ich kaufe mir also von meinem quartalsgehalt für alle meine lichtguellen im haus energiesparlampen, die 8 jahre garantie haben, aber nach 6 monaten den geist aufgeben, um dann nachts in den unbelebtesten straßen die schrillste autohausschaufensterbeleuchtun­g bestaunen zu dürfen, oder werbetafeln die nicht mehr nur grell leuchten, sondern auch noch per motor dafür sorgen, daß mir auch bloß kein konsumgut entgeht ...

[TheFrentic]

dont worry she is alredy dead...becus of you!!!!

[popinfresh69]

um the twirly light bulbs contain mercury which is more hazardous then the energy that regular light bulbs use

[tsudohn1mh]

Funny propaganda.

We have parents refusing immunization b/c of their fear a discontinued immunization preservative that contained a small amount of mercury that could be related to the increase in autism in children.

YET these "eco-friendly" fluorescent bulbs that save so much energy and contain MERCURY. Anyone ever heard of Mercury poisoning? They've take mercury thermometers off the shelf and put mercury light bulbs in our homes. We are truly lemmings

[angelica14709]

Help needed to stop DTE.........Detroit Edison (DTE ENERGY) has recently expressed their interest in building another nuclear power plant. The site has currently been undergoing the site Operating License approval steps for the new plant. This process can take up to 5 years. The reactor design is undetermined as of yet, but the new plant is rumored to be 35% to 40% efficient. Building the plant is rumored to start as early as 2010. Where the waste go?

[artsut]

I don't see any good arguments towards this so called "clean" energy. the amount of land it takes to set up a wind farm to produce the amount of energy as one nuclear power plant is crazy. With that amount of land you could build a nuclear reactor and still have enough land left to build the waste containment facilities with land left over.

[angelica14709]

After googling NWMO, Canada's nuclear web site, I conclude that they are fooling you into thinking the waste problem has been solved. Storage in a building for thousand's of years is not a solution. The land is not an issue because wind is on hilltops and water. Land is an issue when raising crops to feed SUV's and not people. I lived in Detroit when the first nuclear (Fermi) plant was built, when they said handling the waste was just around the corner in 1963. Google "West Valley" Old problem

[varude]

well i suppose that if you like so much nuclear energy you're ready to offer your house and garden as nuclear waste storage. they say it's so healthy ... cancer is not an issue, it's so fun innit'?

[artsut]

I have no problem with Nuclear power. I have worked in the industry and my father has worked in it for 27 years. We both work at the first plant of its kind in Canada and it has worked for 25 years without a problem. They are refurbishing it this year and building a second reactor. Do you realize how much unused land Canada has. The land is not an issue and cancer is the least of my worries. Its hippies like you that have me worried

[angelica14709]

Your headstone (RIP) will be great because of the money you made from the profits of generating electricity. Our future generations will love you and us much while they move our waste from one container to another for thousands of years while trying not to contaminate themselves. At 21 years of age I am glad you have no problem with nuclear power. You think hippies will leave a bigger mark on the world than nuclear waste and over consumption.Grow food and use wind on your newly warmed land in CA

[woodsmanjoe]

Very clever video. Check out "chopping down the hillside" for another environmental message. Save the earth however you can!

[barriendosoles]

ajjjajajajajajajajajjjaa

very funny!

y deja una gran moraleja....

:)

[armoniamg59]

Nuclear power and cooling tanks? The thing is nobody wants the nuclear waste in their back yard.

[SteveWrathall]

Greenpeace could use their own arse-lights. But they'd have to remove their heads first and get real about nuclear power.

[damiwri1975]

Nuclear energy is not a viable option because:

1)Too expensive. A nuclear plant has the lifespan of 20 years, it costs billions to build, billions to maintain, and billions to protect. Not to mention the costs of getting the uranium and the costs of transporting and safeguarding the waste.

2)Inherently dangerous. Every nation that has nuclear plants also has the base material for building nuclear weapons.

3)Not clean. Almost all of the nuclear waste is dangerously radioactive for 250.000 years.

[SteveWrathall]

Nonsense cubed.

1. Nuclear power is comparable in price to conventional sources and much cheaper and more reliable than "alternatives" like wind and wave.

2. anything can be made into a weapon. the solution is stringent IAEA oversight and real consequences for rogue regimes.

3. Anything that is "radioactive for 250 000 years is by definition hardly radioactive at all. Radioactivity is inversely proportional to half-life. See my vid on the nuclear topic

[damiwri1975]

After reading your arguments I wonder: do you mean you are cubing the nonsense? In reply to your arguments:

1) Just not factual. Only the start-up costs of clean energy are high. And no raw materials needed.

2)We see now this solution is not working. 'No you can not have nuclear energy because I say you are a rogue regime'.

3)So you are saying there is no nuclear waste? I wish I could belive you.

[SteveWrathall]

1) Alternatives have constant high costs (e.g. wind: maintanence of roads in rugged terrain, gearbox issues)and are unreliable therefore require backup by real sources.

2) If you have given up on enforcing the nuclear regulatory regulations then you have sweet F.A. chance of making the much more onerous and complicated carbon reduction regulations work-globally.

[SteveWrathall]

3) The qualtities of waste requiring long term geological storage are small. Yukka mountain and a site in Siberia could recieve the whole world's for centuries.

[damiwri1975]

None of your arguments convinces me (and I really try to be open minded). We have no need for these obsolete squanderings from the last century. Decentralized energy production is the future. Would you really want it any other way?

[SteveWrathall]

Small-scale electricity production may be appropriate for particular cases, e.g. islands or other isolated communities. But you're always up against the iron law of economies of scale. If building 10 000 windmills was a better idea than 1 nuclear/gas/coal/station or dam it would've been done decades ago without government screwing the scrum.

[angelica14709]

You mean oil companys and government, just like now.

[SteveWrathall]

Think back to your high school: remember "potential" energy? Hydro/nuclear/fossil fuel power are favoured because the energy can be stored indefinately in a "potential" form without significant loss. Wind wave solar etc will always be inherantly erratic regardless of how many billions we throw at research. You're up against fundamental logistical constraints.

[angelica14709]

"fundamental logistical constraints" The human condition  mainly "greed".

[SteveWrathall]

Please explain how a lack of "greed" wil magically make the problem of intermittancy with wind/wave/solar disappear. Will all these "non-greedy" people simply not mind having no phone, heating, lighting etc. And how will they charge their eco-cars?

[angelica14709]

Read my comment below. My time on earth is growing shorter as is future generations. Citizens in my county (Allegany,NY) won the case in the United States Supreme Court that the State of NY does not have to take title to privatly generated nuclear waste. Would you like us to send it to Austraila, we will just give the word. Your solution is shallow, the time may have passed to fix it. US congress is considering a plan to pipe coal emissions from power plants into undergrond caverns.

[SteveWrathall]

It doesn't make any sense at all for each county/state/country to store its own nuclear waste. Long term deep geological storage at Yukka Mountain, and perhaps sites in Aussie and Siberia, and/or reprocessing in Japan makes much more sense. Just "thinking globally" here.

[angelica14709]

All nuclear waste resides a the plants that generated it. The waste problem has not been solved. Do you have nuclear power plants in Austraila? Governor Mario Cuomo closed a $5 billion nuclear plant before it could generate power because there was no evacuation plan on Long Island, NY. Interesting to carry on a conversation with someone in Austraila. Google "reprocessing" and "storage" and read. After reading, try to give a good argument for Nuclear Power from a respected source.

[SteveWrathall]

There are no nuclear power plants in Aussie, or in my country (NZ). However both have started debating it. Something unthinkable a few years ago. The ability of France to generate 70% of its power by nuclear means with electricity at moderate cost shows that it is the only source of reliable, baseline power if you take the GW agitprop of this video seriously.

[angelica14709]

Still unthinkable. France has not solved the waste problem.

[angelica14709]

While just stalling on the emissions problem the opportunity for a real fix is being lost. The oil people will get rich building another series of pipe lines, they have an effective killer lobby. The coal trains running here are amazing, when you think of the hole in the ground each train leaves and all the tons of carbon locked up in the rail cars. I live near West Valley Nuclear Storage from early 60's. Google it, what a mess, spent billions.

[angelica14709]

From 1966- 1972, irradiated nuclear fuel from both atomic weapons and commercial power reactors was brought in and reprocessed (to extract uranium and plutonium remaining and formed in the fuel rods), resulting in high worker exposures, high levels of radioactive contamination into the streams that drain the site and gush into the Great Lakes, and many fires. Reprocessing wastes were also buried at the site. Plans to resume reprocessing were cancelled when earthquake dangers were identified.

[angelica14709]

West Valley NY. Geologically, the site is in a bedrock valley that is expected to erode into the Great Lakes in centuries to come, but the nuclear waste buried at the site will remain dangerously radioactive much longer than the projected erosion rate. Strontium-90 is moving 40-60 feet per year through the groundwater at levels up to 346,000 times background levels and, in 1994, emerged at the surface at 30 gallons per minute.

[angelica14709]

The "American Way" is greedy........A total of 677 business aircraft landings were recorded at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport on Super Bowl weekend, filling up just about every available parking area on the airport. Swift Aviation, the official FBO for the event, pumped more than 280,000 gallons of jet fuel into the aircraft.

This is hard to believe given the state of the planet. Does this qualify as greed? End this abuse is a good start. These people are also getting a business tax write off.

[SteveWrathall]

The thought of other people having fun seems to distress you.

[angelica14709]

It's called the "Inconvenient Truth". The fun seekers messing up the planet with no thought of it. Yes it does distress me, This is the comment that sparked Steve's comment................A total of 677 business aircraft landings were recorded at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport on Super Bowl weekend, filling up just about every available parking area on the airport. Swift Aviation, the official FBO for the event, pumped more than 280,000 gallons of jet fuel into the aircraft. Plus Bush tax cuts.

[SteveWrathall]

But its not just a few rich people who'll have to give up their lear jets to "save the planet" eh? The rest of us will have to give up red meat and get used to public transport won't we?

[angelica14709]

SteveWrathall...You have no coherent argument, did you drop nuclear power as the answer? Let's start by not flying to football games in our Lear Jets. Maybe just use them for the "business" of explioting people for which they were designed. Lets start by not using food to make into fuel. The fund raisers come to me for money to help verterans of the war. They should go to people who use the oil in their airplane and oilcompanys, they have the money. There are a few kinks to be worked out.

[angelica14709]

You can have fun without fucking up the planet. You don't need to fly to Phenix Sky Harbor to watch your favorite football team lose in the super bowl (small caps). What a looser the Planet and I would be then. lol

[tykemeawaywyou]

yeah! i H-A-T-E football!

[angelica14709]

What we (human population) are doing is unsustainable under any circumstance. But do not fear the planet earth will recycle just fine without us.

[theFEELgoodINC]

Eventually eventually, regardless of all of our endeavours, the human race will probably die out, and the Earth will fix itself.

[Faythalie]

Awesomely funny!!!

Thanks!

That's disturbing! xD

[rannaaa]

ahahahahaha good video

[RabidLeroy]

Despite some great points given in this vid, this ad is so wrong in so many ways... anyway, some use of humor is good.

[saintfletcher]

So that is the problem with neocons. They really believe that is where the sun shines from. What assholes. 5* Blessings from Earth +++ The Saint +++

[diane18944]

lol...that's a good video...good job well done. Now this should get the message out. What is it going to take for people to realize we are destroying ourselves. Just bought some for the house. People don't realize the climate is changing and we are the blame. Good work Green Peace this will turn a few heads.

[zachkomes]

Wohoo. Great job Greenpeace!

i already use those NRG efficient bulbs so all i can say is...

Good job no matter how disturbing it was to watch it.

*shudder*

[JohnnyEK]

Are these the same energy efficient light bulbs that are filled with mercury..??

[benzoylation]

Kind of, mercury vapour. If they were filled with mercury they would weigh more than a can of beer.

p.s. coal contains mercury, radioactive elements, and so on. Energy efficient lightbulbs do make a difference to keep the mercury out of the air and surrounding fields.

[JohnnyEK]

Thanks. I heard you are not suppose to throw them out with the regular garbage because of the mercury content. I can't see 99.9% of the population bothering to do this, so what will this mean for the environment?

[hoppimike]

lol that was mad! will certainly turn a few heads!
