"A low-watt bulb"


From an AP story:
Paris Hilton is making a personal contribution to protecting the environment.

"I changed all the light bulbs to energy-safe light bulbs and I'm buying a hybrid car right now," the 26-year-old celebrity heiress said Wednesday.

Hilton said she turns off the lights, doesn't leave the TV on or the water running when she leaves her house.

HOORAY FOR HER! WAY TO MAKE A COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABILITY!

Editor: are we really supposed to believe that she's giving up air travel and 6,000 mile caviar also? Rich and powerful families have always had their castles, bigger houses, security staff, hot cocoa, plentiful horses and pig-on-a-spit pie. This never changes. It's just that the rest of us peons now have plentiful horses (Ford Mustang) and McMeat (In'N'Out) available 24/7. The world wouldn't be fucked a million times over if only the rich and powerful drove cars. And she hasn't had any kids yet. Now that's a "dark green" leading by example!

Paris Hilton Is Looking for 'A Nice Boy'

6 days ago
BERLIN (AP) — Paris Hilton is looking for a boyfriend and knows exactly what qualities Mr. Right should possess.

"Right now I'm single but I am looking for a nice boy," she told reporters in Berlin on Wednesday. "He should be funny, smart and loyal."

The celebrity heiress, author, singer, perfume designer and reality TV star was in the German capital to take part in an advertising campaign for Rich Prosecco — a sparkling wine that is to be sold in cans.

Hilton said she was planning to visit one of Berlin's Christmas markets, the city's famous museums and had already been partying at Berlin's trendy Cookies club.

Hilton, wearing a black glittering dress and a golden chain and cross around her neck, also told reporters that she is making an effort to personally contribute to protecting the environment.

"I changed all the light bulbs to energy safe light bulbs and I'm buying a hybrid car right now," Hilton said, adding she also turned off the lights at home, didn't leave the TV on or the water running when she left the home.

"Little things that people can do every day to make a huge difference."

This all reminds me of that adBusters magazine spread showing an aerial view of a gigantic mansion on a huge estate, with the phrase "How Big is your footprint?" over it.
