(Dont) Get Naked by candlelight

I doubt anyone who is going to the Naked retreats Naked by Candlelight is reading this, but this is an event that really exemplifies environmental awareness done ass-backwards. 

Their cunning plan was (they have now rescheduled to 11th Apr) to spend Earth Day's no lights hour at a mountain called Moganshan a few hours drive from Shanghai listening to music by candlelight. A lovely thought, on the surface appearing extremely eco-friendly. But anyone with half a brain can see the obvious flaw in their cunning plan.

If 200 odd people are going to travel from Shanghai to Moganshan in their cars/buses (it is not  possible to reach Moganshan by public transport alone), that is going to send a shitload of CO2 out. I doubt that listening to music in the hill will even begin to compensate.

If you want to save the planet and feel cool, just buy a plant or plant a tree. And dont go to Moganshan to do it.
