Earth Hour 2009

[Officer-Pie]

Do you want to help the environment? Help lower global warming? I am hosting an event called "Turn off all your electronics!" Which means Turn off all your electronics! 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Turn off your computer, tv, lights, the whole 9 yards! Play board games or card games with the family! Help the polar bears keep their home!

Me, the polar bears, the penguins, the whole arctic food chain, beg you! Participate in the event! You can even have some family fun and get together. I am not saying you have to, I understand if you do not want to. They expect a whopping 1 billion people to participate! I challenge you to double their expectations!

And it doesn't have to be for an hour! You can do this electric famine whenever you like! A lot of people are participating already, but you know, it's not just about the hour! You can get in habits of turning off your electronics and such all the time!

Big energy bill? Not only helping the environment, but you're helping to keep your bills and costs to those big companys low! They want your pockets, they don't care about the environment! Show them whose boss!

The math is here...

Thanks everyone! I hope you don't show up! (As in, turn off those electronics!)
The earth thanks you. Again, you don't have to, no body is forcing you. This is a decision you make on your own.

8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. in every timezone.

[xosniper]

Instead of turning everything off for a "Green" day, why don't we go plant a tree?

[Fragbait]

I'll turn off everything possible. Gotta do my part to help Momma Earth.

 

[Caffeine-Rx]

I turn off all my electronics for 6-8 hours everyday ... it just so happens I sleep during that time as well.

Everything except my fridge will be off.

No matter if our planet is really 'warming up', we still are using our natural resources way too fast.

If you don't believe in Global Warming, do this for your great great etc. grandkids who might not have "insert natural resource here" when they're growing up.

Oh and say goodbye to our ozone layer.

 

[Syntax!]

Seems a tad counter-intuitive to me.
Can't be good for the grid if EVERYONE turns their stuff on at the same time.

 

[Born to Pwn]

Yeah I have everything turned off most of the time, like right now my computer is the only thing on, and the fridge, etc. I know on a world-wide basis this might make a small impact, but for me, it won't be changing much. O.O

For every light you turn off I will turn on 3.

For every light you turn off I will turn on 3.
