![]() What are the folk that do follow Earth Hour going to do in the dark?Ī. But only if your electricity provider is not green already! So, if you DO want to reduce energy-produced carbon emissions by a MINISCULE amount by switching off lights, first connect to an electricity provider that isn’t already green, and then switch off lights during the day. Switching off lights at night doesn’t make them generate any less electricity. New Zealand and Australia both get one whole day a year to them selves, and the whole earth only gets an hour? Shouldn’t it be earth week and we all get a one week holiday?īut wont switching off lights at least drop load at the power station and reduce emissions? No! The Power stations are on idle at night – they have to run at a minimum load. Well wouldn’t it be better to think about it for more than one hour a year? If I was the earth I would be feeling a bit ripped off. Earth Hour – a futile and scientifically unsound gesture towards making ourselves feel better about screwing the earth over.Īdvocates say it makes people think about the earth.
