Seeing this prompted me to think about how much energy there is in the ocean and how little of it we are using.

We need to build devices that turn the ocean's movement into electrical energy. Then we will be free from burning fossil fuels and creating greenhouse gases. Currents can be eternal energy sources and the energy is free.

Also on a related topic, keep in mind: "Making lighting more efficient could increase energy use, not decrease it"

It is worth remembering that when gas lights replaced candles and oil lamps in the 19th century, some newspapers reported that they were “glaring” and “dazzling white”. In fact, a gas jet of the time gave off about as much light as a 25 watt incandescent bulb does today. To modern eyes, that is well on the dim side. So, for those who truly wish to reduce the amount of energy expended on lighting the answer may not be to ban old-fashioned incandescent bulbs, as is the current trend, but to make them compulsory.
