Action #081

Challenge your business about its 'lights on at night' policy

 
This action has been done 1,316 times which means we've saving roughly as much energy as it would take to heat water for 1,316,000 cups of coffee every night.
 
How we did the maths
 

Stride into your boss's office. Stare hard and say 'The trouble with you is that the lights are on, but there's nobody at home.' Other good insults are to say 'The lift doesn't go to the top floor does it?' Or 'You're having a blonde moment, aren't you?', or 'You must have been born in the stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down.' The last three are just gratuitous insults - and only to be used if you've just won the lottery. But the first one has a serious point to it. After all, just what is the point in leaving lights on when there's nobody there?

    Lights on at night policy

    Every night I make sure that only the necessary lights are on in my residential and commercial complex which is a 8 story and 2 underground. 15 March 2010, 14:02

    Constructing light

    The building site opposite me seems to have this policy of leaving ALL the lights on in the entire site...It's a ten story building.

    There is no darkness in my flat.

    I have asked them. "It's for Health and Safety" they said.

    ?

    Thanks very much Sir Robert McAlpine...
    What's more, it's the new Environment Agency building in Bristol...
