Is There a Green Side to the Superbowl?

The day after one of the largest consumerism holidays I find myself wondering if there were any environmental benefits to the Superbowl. I mean, did you see those lights that they were using in the stadium?! You can be sure that those lights were not saving any energy (besides when the power decided to go out). So, my curiosity got the best of me and I then stumbled on this article by the New York Times. It shows that energy consumption is down during and after the Superbowl, most likely because everyone is glued to the television, but who knows! It’s worth the read and can be found here. Enjoy!
