In my perfect scenario I visualize these lactose-free, gluten-free, earth-shoe types turning off all the lights in their house for an hour, and then when they go to turn them back on... nothing. Click-click. No light. They check with their neighbors. No light. No heat. After about a day, panic would set in. This would make a good sic-fi short story.
Libs like to play games of "let's feel good about ourselves", but they don't and can't live with the consequences of their actions.
I have a farm, sheep, chickens, etc, and hate the watermelon useful idiots that control and screw up almost everything. They wouldn’t last three days in the woods before one of their sweet gaia predators ate them. If Commies take my farm, they’ll starve in six months. When their cities die, they will flee like parasites from a dead rat and all the metro-sexuals can kiss my grass; but, all ya’ll Constitution, Bible and gun huggers are welcome at my table anytime.
good idea. Might be worth sneaking into a few houses during "Earth Hour" and throwing the main breaker. See how long it takes for them to figure it out. :-)
The *good* thing about "Earth Hour" is that it's relatively benign. Useless, energy wasting, and annoying, but benign.
If environmentalists ever figure out that lighting (something that's handy, but not critical to survival) doesn't use a fraction of the energy that stuff like refrigeration, heating, and AC uses ....then we're in trouble.
I can see "Sweat Days". Instead of heating your house in the winter, Enviros will suggest that you put on a sweater, get up, and do 100 jumping jacks to stay warm. And so on.
