I am replacement the incadescent bulbs on my boat with ones that are
more green in their energy usage. I have found that the compact
flourescents cause too much radio and gps noise and aren't that
efficient, so I am looking at replacing everything with LED lighting.
A weekday crewmember recommended going to oil lamps for the interior.
They do give a nautical "air" but how environmentally sound are they?
Thank you,

Milton


They smell. Do you want to breath that stuff. it
will kill you.

As to the "environmentally sound" question, I suggest that

either you
develop a sense of proportion, or take up riding a bicycle

as your sole
means of transportation. Oh, and grease the chain and

wheels with tallow
instead of petroleum products.


do you have any idea how much pollution is produced by
tallow production? Not to mention the shipping!

Ah, but it's not made by those evil oil companies, or

those double evil
pharmaceutical companies, Scotty. Can you imagine a

Hollywood movie with a
tallow producer as its villain?


Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING relies on oil somehow.
