solid state gear- leave on?

Is it good idea to leave solid state power amps on during the day if they don't make much heat?

Let's face it not many can plan there listening session's 8 hours in advance. Compound that by the potential damage from cold/hot cycles and it only makes sense to leave them on.

It is true that the earths temperture is rising at a faster rate in the last 10 years than ever before which is concering. Apparently we are almost as hot as the 1500's. Obviously there were no cars or internal combustion then. Apparently the cows were very, very gassy back then.
