Kind of Harsh (and real) Answers from House Beautiful's Article "Green Living Talk Me Down!"
"I like to be toasty. Putting on socks and three sweaters just doesn't do it for me. I keep the thermostat cranked up while I sleep"
Katherine Tiddens: My first response is that you can either put on a sweater now, or freeze in the dark when we run out of fossil fuels.
"I hate the light from those new energy-saving bulbs. I just can't bring myself to give up that warm glow of incandescent bulbs."
KT: You have to.
"I need air-conditioning. I sleep better, I feel better. I'm not above leaving it on all day while I'm at work, soI come home to a comfortable temperature."
Lori Bongiorno: I have to say: Suffer for 10 minutes!
These were only taken out of context to the extent that I eliminated the answers that followed. I didn't know that being green meant you were so crabby all the time.
