Sorry, Warmists, it’s time for you to give up your iPad, it’s bad for the environment because it uses too much electricity, which destroys sustainability and causes the seas to rise
(Grist) ……you have to charge the thing. According to a study from the Electric Power Research Institute, adding the cost of powering your $1,400 investment brings your annual total up to … $1,401.36.
Consumers who fully charge their iPad tablet every other day can expect to pay $1.36 for the electricity needed annually to power the device, according to an  assessment by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI).
The analysis shows that each model of the iPad consumes less than 12 kWh of electricity over the course of a year, based on a full charge every other day. By comparison, a plasma 42†television consumes 358 kWh of electricity a year.
Also mentioned are iPhones, laptops, and even CFL bulbs. Now, CFLs are cheaper than incandescent, yet, they still use power. Time to turn the computers and Apple products off while sitting in the dark. It’s the only way to save Gaia. A buck here, .25 cents there, it all ads up when all Warmists practice what they preach.
