I can't believe Earth Hour still exists. Google can't even be bothered to promote it on their homepage anymore.

[Paladin2]

It’s the North Korean Solidarity Hour.

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Everything gets turned on at 8:30.

[Inyo-Mono]

Oh boy, this caught me off guard. Time to run out and hang the Christmas lights for tonight.

[FlingWingFlyer]

If you live there, be careful driving around tonight. There are going to be a lot of loonies out there driving around without their lights on.

[Lurkinanloomin]

I love Human Achievement Hour. I turn on every electrical device I have and start the engines in all the cars and trucks.

[umgud]

I’ll crank up my air conditioner, turn everything I have that’s electric, just cuz this kind of crap pisses me off. Oh, BTW, I’ll wear my MAGA ht while I’m at it.

[Libloather]

Will they be using their cell phones as search lights? Thought so.

[cableguymn]

No worries..

I’ll be their northern star for the evening.. (I am north of the cities just far enough for them to need a few decades to catch up with me).

[bicyclerepair]

All lights on at 8:30pm tonight. Thanks for the heads up.

“the world’s largest voluntary action for the environment,”

The Liberal Loonies would like it to be MANDATORY!

[IronJack]

Everything gets turned on at 8:30.

Yep. I'll put on all the outside lights, every light I can burn inside, and I may even light all the fireplaces.

Maybe I'll even pull my car onto the driveway and leave the engine running ... with the lights burning.

[FrdmLvr]

Thanks for the reminder. I have to go upstairs and turn on all the lights. Almost forgot.

The family cabin is up near McGregor - definitely a few decades behind things.

I was thinking, we should try to get these Liberal leaders to REALLY prove their alliance with the green socialist agenda. Have them shut down ALL the electricity on the grid for the entire state for the entire 24 hours of Earth Day. And with lots of promo on the radio and TV - “Re-Elect Mark Dayton (is he still Gov.?) and EVERY day will be Earth Day!”

[AndyJackson]

I have an idea. Let’s celebrate earth millenium by shutting down the power, and all other services, to Washington DC permanently.

[Fiddlstix]

I shall turn on every electrical appliance in my house!
It's the least I can do to help the liberals
suffer heart attacks. LOL

[Salman]

Earth at night the right way.
