In the mid 1970’s during the energy crisis, many families and communities decided to give up lighting their homes and trees for the holidays. Homes in my neighborhood didn’t turn on their outdoor holiday lights again for many years, even after the crisis had passed. Well, here we go again. This time it’s a climate crisis, caused to some extent, by an ever-growing reliance on carbon-based fuels. And guess what powers most holiday displays – yep, mostly green-house-gas-creating-carbon-based-coal-fired power plants. Maybe it’s our fear of dampening any holiday spending during the other current crisis - economic crisis - but I haven’t yet heard communities, governments or environmentalists suggest that we stop our holiday lighting plans this year.
