家家户户彩旗飘

閒雲潭影日悠悠,物換星移幾度秋

为了迎接APEC,在北京的亲友,但凡有窗户或凉台面向外宾经过的大街,在过去的一个多月里,都受到不同程度的“骚扰”,最后连晒衣杆也被拆了,说是怕奥巴马看到晒的衣服。有抱怨的人问“那奥巴马真的会看吗?”  
 
我还真不知道,但我可以告诉您,几年前美国掀起了一个草根“绿色运动”:即“晒衣权利”(“Right-to-Dry”)。美国每年有至少6%的电用于烘干衣服。这原本是太阳、风和干空气就能无偿干的事,却花钱让电厂干。这钱还让化石能源发电厂释放“绿室气”,增加空气污染。现在,终于有人想明白了(图1和2)。在美国,已有19个州取消“晒衣绳禁令”,其他有类似禁令的州也有望加入。美国绿色网站给出很多晾衣服的主意(例:图3)。我用活动挂衣架晾衣服(图4),天气好时,将挂衣架推到南屋窗前;屋里干燥时,晾衣服可以增加湿度。晒干的衣服,有一股清新的“太阳气味”,还省银子,何乐而不为呀?试想哪个政治家还会愚蠢地议论老百姓晒衣服的长短?
 
其实,中国老百姓大都不用烘干机,这难道不是对人类的一个巨大的贡献吗?有没有人算一算这减少了多少吨“绿室气”?所以,我认为,晒衣杆不仅不该拆,还应该鼓励家家在外宾经过时晒衣,更应该鼓励用花花哨哨的裤衩背心迎接外宾(图5):家家户户彩旗飘。不为别的,就为显示中国人民是节能的先锋,还有他们的友好和幽默!
