LOL Liberals have to ask what to do for an hour in the dark?

Con Edison thanks you for your business!

Seriously, that’s way more than I did, but apparently you weren’t alone by any stretch.

BTW: bungee cords work great for defeating the safety interlock on the mower ;)

Uh... since when are CANDLES so “green”??

Candles produce an enormous amount of CO and CO2, especially for the very small light they produce. A flame is about the least efficient way to generate light there is.

Have sex. Hopefully one of the sperm get lucky and a child results. Voila! A new carbon footprint results.

"In 2009, nearly 1 billion people . . . turned out their lights for Earth Hour."

Sometimes I think I'd like to become an environmentalist just so I can make crap up without worrying about whether it even sounds remotely plausible to anyone with a functioning brain cell or two.

LOL How the leftist ideas always backfire on them. They should be “punished” with thousands of little carbon footprints.

Well if I hadn't retired I'd fire up the 300 ton air conditioning unit at work with 3-100 HP electric motors on the air handlers as well. That would be 1500 amps at 460 volts on start up and about 270 amps run current not counting the 100 hp motors. I'd make certain both boilers were lit and operating. But I think I'll just turn on all the lights and the heat then go hunting up on the top of the ridge {after I drove up there in a 4WD pickup of course.} Might build a fire up there also. Oh yea there's that old refrigerant in the old 1978 car I need to bleed off also.

Thanx ! This wonderful video was produced by The Competitive Enterprise Institute (where, BTW, Michelle cut her DC political teeth) last year. I think they may have a new effort this year that was sent to my other computer, but I ran out before I could check it out. If so, I'm sure I'll have opportunities to link to it within the next week.

Of course liberals don’t know what to do when the lights are out.

That is why most of the up-and-coming generation is conservative!

While all the lights are out no one can see me dump old motor oil in the storm sewer.

I think I’ll start a bonfire in celebration. I have ~ 4 gallons of leftover gas/oil mixture that I need to get rid of.
