Don't forget Earth Hour tonight!

Post Reply New Topic

Earth Hour has gone global. Last year 2.2 million Sydney households and 2100 Sydney businesses turned off their lights for one hour - Earth Hour.

Turn off all your lights at 8pm, 29th of March for 1 hour to reduce co2 emissions.

Sydney last Earth Hour.

WOW look at that picture!
Thanks!

The sooner people realize that all this 'conservation' talk is rubbish, the sooner we can move along to some actual science ! !!

There is NO shortage of energy ! ! Try repeating that as a Mantra. Any perceived shortage is artificial, and purely the doing of the cartels who control such things as oil ! !!

lots of melbourne businesses are doing that this year. my work is.

it is amazing how different the city looks in the dark.

Frankly I prefer the lights to be on ...

Three cheers for Las Vegas USA ! !! !!

Hip, hip, hooray ! !

I just saw it on the news.

I guess its tomorrow at 8 for everyone all over the world

It's Marxist propaganda ! !

There's no bloody shortage ! !!

The Russians prolly now have more oil than the Saudis ! !

Oil is not a renewable resource, so it will run out one day, chances are I will be dead when that time comes, but the sooner we bring attention to it, the better!

I am so turning off my lights for this event.

Bunch of bloody Marxist loonies. Does anyone other than Prof Pretorius actually think, or do you all simply soak up propaganda like passive sponges soak up spilled gravy? Like NTs do.

This isn't about oil or energy shortages. This is about CO2 emissions and global warning. I agree that we are in no immidiate danger from energy shortages, but I believe our co2 emissions are damaging the global climate.

i'm not gonna do it. I feel i do enough for the environment by recycling and doing things that these people SHOULD be doing other than turning off the lights for an hour.

Google's homepage sure does look cool tho.

Other than making it harder for night travelers to see where they're going, this will accomplish absolutely nothing.

Know this.

95% of all CO2 emissions worldwide are created naturally.

Oil is renewable, the Russians have discovered enough oil that they are now second only to the Saudis.

I get so damned bloody tired of statements such as "I believe it". Where is the argument? Where is your logic? Where is evidence?

Ya'all believe it just like Roman Catholics believed it was a good thing to kill witches.

C'mon aspies. We are supposed to be intelligent and logical. And you fall for emotional pap.

Nelly Furtado is Canada’s Earth Hour Ambassador and she was singing her song for the live Earth Hour Celebration in Toronto.

To all the skeptics and critics, it’s not actually important what it will accomplish in and of itself, it is a collective gesture of awareness for future change.

Critics say for instance that these two hours are not going to do anything to save the planet, but it’s giving news programs and educators everywhere the chance to make a statement and inform the public about various things, bringing awareness to other environmental themes and energy conservation strategies.

I learned on the News tonight for instance that if every Canadian just switched one incandescent bulb for a compact florescent, the energy saved would be equivalent to taking 57 thousand cars off the road.

On the news they showed lights going off dramatically (like the above picture) in major cities all over Canada but I noticed they neglected my city. And while I was out at 8 o clock no one seemed to notice and the view of the city I had from the shopping center I was in showed some but very little difference between the city scape as it was normally. I even asked a waitress and she stared out for some time and said that to be honest, it did not look much different from how it usually looked on any other given night. A big disappointment.

Anyone who believes this enviro-crappola is an uncritical loony. No thought at all.Just fear. Loonies. the lot of you.
