or when burning any fossil fuel or otherwise not living a carbon neutral/sustainable lifestyle? Slippery slope honing in on amps and their impact to their environment versus other activities in life that move the needle in much much bigger ways. There are things we can all do to reduce our carbon footprint that are much more meaningful than firing up big amps. With that said, keeping equipment on 24/7 does seem wasteful. I use primarily tube gear and don't turn it on anyway when I'm not using it.
