If the idea is to ban inherently energy-wasting things, then turn off all the streetlights.

  Why are streetlights inherently wasteful? We may not need them, but we don't need TVs. Plus in the grand scheme of energy wasting things, why is that top of your list? Seems a weird thing to have a vendetta against.

    Because nobody needs an 80W lightbulb every 25 metres along every road and street wasting electricity and causing light pollution. Cars have lights. Bikes have lights. Streetlights are wasteful and polluting.

      What about pedestrians? What about safety from the increased visibility?

        There's enough light to see without street lights.
