Energy-Saving Tips from Barbra Streisand

It turns out that in addition to being the greatest singer of all time, Barbra Streisand is also an expert on the environment. Recently, her wisdom was revealed when she posted her top energy-saving tips on her web site, Barbrastreisand.com.

1. Have your chauffer drive you to the bus or train station so you can continue your journey via more fuel-efficient public transit.

2. Have your maid use a broom rather than a vacuum to clean the floor.

3. Have more of your meals catered so you don’t have to run your oven and stove.

4. Have your gardener use a push rather than a power mower to trim the lawn.

5. Send your clothes out to be laundered so you don’t have to run your washer and dryer.

6. Hire live entertainment so you don’t have to run your television.

“These are just a few of the routine things I do to help save energy in my day-to-day activities,” said Streisand. “If others could just follow these and other simple steps, we would reduce our energy consumption and save the planet.”

LOL!!! Isn't she one of the ones who has an house with bedrooms in the teens, a heated pool, etc.? I think she got all bent out of shape when helicopters were taking pictures of her MEGA mansion.

Ah,yes.. here it is. See the mansion in the middle that can fit a few of the other surrounding houses inside of it. More of the liberal "do what I say, not what I do" B.S.
