Actually, it takes more energy to produce a black screen on most modern screens, so that's only good for people usin' old '95's lol.

Ninja.com is better. Still has no effect on energy use.

I have yet to find a pirate's web search though. :x

Yeah go use Blackle and pretend you're doing something for the environment.

Meanwhile the ice caps are still melting at a geometric rate. IMO you can't stop something that huge. It's a phase the Earth is entering into, whether we're helping it along or not it's gonna happen.

Yes... Perhaps it will be better in the long run if we end this blemish called humanity.

After all, the Earth is merely a pale blue dot. :roll:

The planets been around for millions of years. If it can go through ice ages and all that other crap, why couldn't it go through ice melting. Who says it won't keep going for millions of years.

How much energy would this even save (for CRT's) anyways? Like .00001 KW every time you use it? =/ Google ftw =D

IMO if you really wanted to stop the world from becoming shit in around 50 years you would have to get everyone on the planet to stop everything that they're doing and work on it. Global Warming isn't something you can slow down by doing something so useless as using a black web page to search for shit on. You might save a few cents per year on your power bill, but you're still going to be baking under the hot sun once the huge levels of methane melt the ozone.

The best you can really do is hope somebody in politics gets a huge energy crisis plan together and gets our resources shifted toward slowing global warming down. Until something that big happens though I doubt you'll see ANYTHING drastic change as far as fixing the problem goes. And that's if we can even hope to do anything in the first place.

What will ruin the world first?

Economic crisis. Look at the bones, look at the bones.
How much debt do your parents carry?
How about you?

Think about (just for a sec) the national debt.
It went up millions and millions in that sec (guessing).

Not sure that 50 years is the correct prognosis, maybe 6???
Ok, I use a LCD but have it on 'energy savings' settings.
I don't use heat except when it's cold, never use air conditioning...

Not because of the 'environment' but because I'm a cheap barstard. :D
Oh, and I kinda like:

The people who don't believe animals should be harmed at all (i.e. slaughtered for meat) are the ones I categorize as "tree-huggers" or "hippies"..well not really "tree huggers" or "hippies", more like, ignorant. "Down with hunters and the innocent MURDERING of whitetail deer!" Hmm, so let them overpopulate and starve themselves out, sounds like a nice way for them to go..

Sorry, I'm and avid hunter and had that argument with someone not long ago..thought I'd throw this post (being pretty much irelavent to the OT) in with the rest hehe. I like to vent.

OT: Google > All else. (I have an LCD)

want to save more energy? get ur self an 8-16mb video card, as the modern ones eat too much energy... probably more than the white-black difference u found...
