The real question should be, was there an increase in power usage anywhere - caused by counter demonstrators?
I had every light in the house on, two computers, two laptops and the TV. The only thing I didn’t do was prop the refrigerator door open.
Yes, Calgary (Alberta) actually showed a significant rise in power consumption during Earth Hour. Of course the Flames were fighting for their playoff lives at the time!
IMO picking Saturday Night to have this Kumbya Kyoto Kumbya moment was incredibly stupid.
P.S. I would like to see the power grid figures between 9 and midnight. I bet every single electric binkie went back on the instant the swaying and chanting was over. And you should have seen the garbage these Hippie Scum left behind! That always used to surprise me, how they would go to Woodstock or some other love-in and leave the place simply rancid with filth.
