Well, I didn’t go all out as some of you. I just wanted to make sure the neighbors know I rebel against this crud - so 80-90% of the lights were on because they can see those lights.
And that’s all I care about - to help the satellite image and to push it in the face of my neighbors!

I’m betting that’s for (sneering childish mocking vocals..) Earth DAY.

You did good. I couldn’t do my outdoor lights because they are on a motion sensor and just went off after a few minutes. But the house was really lit up...tv on....steamer on....AC on.....
Every little bit that we can stick it to them makes me feel good! :)

I'm turning on EVERY light in the house @ 8:30 tonight. And doing a load of laundry. Thanks for the reminder. I've turned up the natural gas heat four degrees, turned on the porch light and burning wood in the fireplace. If it helps warm up my area in the world, all the better for us!

Hmmm...according to your US map, that one guy in North Dakota is REALLY doing his part to light up the sky.
This whole Earth Hour thing is just STUPID. I bet if you counted in the costs of turning off, then turning power back on that it takes MORE energy to get things "warmed up" again.
It reminds me of when NBC turned off their lights during some football broadcast. Bob Costas and the other guys just sat there in the dim studio, looking like fools. Studio lights don't just come right back on, they take a long time to come back to their full brightness. Plus it wears out electrical devices faster when you keep doing this.

Instead they should get on their knees and pray.

Got the computer on (of course), microwave, clothes dryer, TV all going, and all the lights on, inside and out.

Yes. That is the one...Earth day. It used to be Arbor day when I was a kid. These days the libs cannot be happy with simply planting a tree. Now we must save the earth.
To: lovesdogs
Well, Earth Day is always April 22. Arbor Day varied, but looks like it’s mostly AROUND that time. Depends. Arbor Day has been around a long time. Hippies invented ED - gulp - basically at my birth. This goes along with the whole Kwanzaa invention. Geesh. The ‘60s sucked big rocks.

I almost forgot about that holier-than-thou moment.
Yet, they were all so upset this year when the lights went out on their own at that playoff game....
