8:30 that’s a strange time.
I put all my lights on at 8:00. :0)
Personally, I will be burning a HUGE pile of old tires in the backyard to celebrate...
got everything on including the blender. (my wife thinks i am nuts!)
Just walked through the house turning on all my lights. They are flouresent, but they are on!
We’re lit up light a Christmas tree:-)
On a related note - we spent today at a big scuba expo in NJ, as we’ve done for the past 7 years or so. Each year, there’s a children’s section where kids have drawn pictures related to oceans, fish, etc. This year, walking through that section, I was struck by the fact that virtually every drawing had to do with global warming & the imminent death of planet Earth. No more happy fish & dolphins - now it’s all gloom & despair. What a change, over the course of just a few years. An entire generation has been brainwashed. Sad.
Hilarious!
Up here, at the edge of the treeline near the Arctic Circle, the sun will still be up and shining. Sunset is officially about 9:20 p.m. tonight.
I think I’ll still turn on the lights, though. Just to do my part.
The Kentucky Wildcats are having a shooting blackout to celebrate Earth Hour. They’re about to choke away their #1 seed.
Bad day for Wildcats so far.
I could be sitting in my backyard reading a book under the floodlights.
But it’s too cold.
Global warming, dontcha know.
The Capital is lit up like a Christmas tree - as it usually is this time of the evening. In fact the whole DC skyline is pretty bright tonight...
I wear my sun glasses at night, appropriate song for the burning of the midnight lamp. Some one pass the tanning oil, where’s my mai-ti. beach baby beach baby......
8:39 central time, neighborhood action report: about half the houses with porch lights/coach lights ablazing; about half totally dark.
However, a good fraction of those in the dark are foreclosed victims of the Obameconomy, so I think the good guys are in the lead here.
WEST VIRGINIA-KENTUCKY
I ain't shuttin off $HIT!!!
I call it “Dirt Hour” and run every electric device I think of. Power to the people.
already planned out turning on all the lights, might even add to my carbon footprint by building a huge fire in the fire ring!!!! Throw in a couple of old sneakers for good measure.
Take that algore !!!!
My god, did I miss Eart hour?
Now I’ll have to leave my lights on continously till
next year?
Bummer dude.
The builders of my house added a whole lot of high-powered outside lights all the way around the house.
Light bulb test in five minutes!
It’s hard to celebrate idiocy. I don’t give this much thought except I won’t power things I wouldn’t normally do so. I was driving for the first part of the hour before getting home and everything looked normal. I think a lot of this is media hype that few swallow.
