Earth Hour 2013 (25 pics)

Obviously someone didn't get the memo.

"Earth Hour is a worldwide event organized by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and held towards the end of March annually, encouraging households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights for one hour to raise awareness about the need to take action on climate change."

"lets all pretend like we are North Koreans"

We need other forms of non-carbon energy produced on a mass scale to reduce greenhouse gasses. As much as I hate to admit it, nuclear energy is the most efficient non-carbon energy source, but it doesn't work for every situation.

Oil companies buy new technology for their own interests. They recognize their infrastructure would become obsolete, costing trillions and untold job losses. When the internal combustion engine was invented, there was no downside because there wasn't a suitable alternative.

I thought they were suppose to turn off the lights?

Like it says in the first line of this post... click on the pictures...

Switch on, switch off.

So, by how much did the temp drop?
