Turn off a light, plug in your car.
I was thinking today about my 4 mile commute to work, while poking at my electric car, wondering how much it's going to make our electric bill go up, and useing figures from TomEV and his simaler Citicar, it looks like if I drive 10 miles per day, 7 days a week it will be around $10.80 per month increase, or about the same as if I turned a 100 watt light bulb on and left it on 24 hours a day for a month, something that it seems like alot of people do.
2400 watt hours per day is in some ways alot of energy, but when you look at how much people waste without realizeing it, it's not that much.
