Earth Hour
 

Tonight anywhere across the globe at 8.30pm to 9.30pm (local time) it is Earth Hour.

For that one hour you switch off all of your lights in your house. You can leave the TV on etc. as long as your lights are off. It is to save money on your electricity bill and it uses less Carbon Dioxide.

nahhhhhhhhhhhh

My Dad *needs* the lights on.

I might have a go!
It nice when you see Melbourne on the news turning off the bridge lights and Sydney Opera House's lights.

i've got energy saving lightbulbs in so i'm doing my bit plus will only be 1 light on

I don't really see the point, what difference is one hour going to make in the long haul?

I agree with Snig, it's just a gimmick.

also surely if it was to make a point and so on a total black out for a hour would be better so only essentials on like fridges and freezers

Lights are off enough when were asleep and during the day...

Off for like 10 hours anyway.

This is being advertised in Maccy D's, people are just being lazy/fussy if they dont do it, I am gonna do it, I dont need my light anyway haha.

god just do it its only turning a light off for an hour, why does everything have to be a dam drama around here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just think it is a bit pointless.

Sam, shush your face and switch the light off :P
You always sit in the dark anyway haha.

:thumbs:

I might go and turn every light in the house on for an hour

I hate stuff like this

Never.
Out of spite for that one hour I am going to turn ON all of my lights.


EDIT.

Tom made that joke before me... :sad:

Everyone point and laugh!

*points and laughs*

:sad:

Nooo.

I have been Nelson'd.

I might turn on all the lights in my house out of spite.

This is just a ridiculous thing people can hide behind and shout timidly "I'm doing something! You aren't! You're a bastard! LALALALALALALA!"

I already use energy-saving bulbs, I rarely have the light on anyway, I recycle and if that bloody isn't enough, I'm happy for the world to die.

And Rick Roll'D

LMFAO I didn't notice Tom and Jen saying that before me.

I need two Nelsons :(
