Earth Hour Tonight

Jump to new
Lady in the shower with her husband
knock at the door
she wraps herself in a towel
she looks through window - notices it's the neighbour Bob
opens the door "hi Bob"
"say, dont forget Earth Hour"!
"ok" she says
"btw" he says "I'll give you $800 if you drop your towel"
she ponders for a while, then thinks, heck 800 is 800 !!
drops the towel.
Bob feasts his eyes, then thanks her, hands over the $800, and leaves.
she returns to the shower with her husband
"who was that?" he asks
"just Bob the neighbour"
"aahh great - and did he give you the 800 bucks he owes me?"

PS . You can even do half power posts! (which only make sense when you highlight them

PS it's a trick I learnt speed reading.

We are obviously close to the apex of Sheeple conditioning...

Why don't we have something useful like a build you own Hydrogen Water Fuel Cell to install in your car to save the consumption of Fossil Fuels Night instead of this stupid Earth Hour bullsh1t...

And for all you Global Warming Dupes out there, I'm predicting the Southern Hemisphere winter to be one of the coldest on record, I'm even going predict snow falling on Cottesloe Beach this winter...
 
mate just rang from Auckland
says the house is in pitch darkness - for earth hour etc -
and asks me "is it 9 oclock yet?"
 
There has been a bit of a drop in load in NSW/ACT, Vic and Tas. Between 2 and 4% depending on location.

More info to come.
 
We have the candles buring already. Still not time up here but someone in my house very eager.... (like do we need THAT many candles) lol.

I must say the candlelight makes my living room looks gorgeous. However I did trip over the dog already and have fire department number at hand.
 

You do realise that the amount of pollution put out by the candles is significantly more than if you just left your lights on?
 
I was going to drape my entire house and property with lighting effects, spot lights and fairy-lights strung out to form the word "RUBBISH"...

But, alas, didn't have time to organise it in time. There's always next year I guess....
 
We can sure tell who is not contributing by who is online now! At least those in this timezone!
 
what a load of hogwash that was.

it was so symbolic, I'm suprised some labour strategist hasn't adopted it as govt policy yet.
 
well symbolic or not , it was an emphatic vote for energy conservation (and/or awareness at least).
My street still in darkness , and it's 9.25

PS Unfortunately (just now) I took the dog for a walk to soak up the atmosphere, and accidentally set off someone's garage driveway remote sensor

PS Iceman, - the world has adopted it man - Australia is a leader yet again

PS tayser (next post , but I'll edit this one instead of a new post) - daughter is in CBD Sydney - says it's had absolutely no effect there (iho).
 
I have a clear view of Melb's CBD with southbank in the foreground: Eureka's aviation warning lights were switched off (stupidity), many apartments - in the tower itself and all the other CE pieces of **** - still had lights on and it looks as if the 101 and 120 Collins St building owners only decided to switch the spires off and Rialto's owner decided to turn the neon's off - still many lights on. Yawn?

Agreed. Rubbish... not a single atom of CO2 saved. It's a sham.

Should be called "Girth Shower"....
 
2020 - I think your street is in darkness because everyone else has gone out.

Just love those in todays paper who were asked whether they would turn their lights off. Answer: I would if I was home but I'm going out tonight.

 
Figures to come later but a few observations around Hobart (been for a bit of a look around town).

Virtually 100% of CBD buildings dark. But then that's normal on a Sat night anyway so nothing really different. Only really notable things were the Tasman Bridge lights being off, the council has turned off the Salamanca fairy lights as well as their own building's decorative lighting. Wrest Point turned off the floodlights. Marine Board building looked very black. Hydro building is occupied but still only a couple of lamps seemed to be on.

Only one that looked sus was lights on in the MBF building. A few on in the Police and Fire stations but that's likely to be legit. Parliament house still floodlit but arguably necessary for safety and security given the location and it is Saturday night.

Noticed a few household lights going out at 8 but it was a minority. I'd guess maybe 15% at the most.

I'm aware of one instance which has skewed the most commonly looked at NEMMCO data which doesn't include most small generation sources (including most wind farms). The output changed significantly during Earth Hour thus producing a larger drop in output from the major generation sources than would otherwise have been the case. Possibly legit for operational reasons and not an attempt to skew the data as such but it did have that effect.
 
What a non event dreamed up by the al gore crowd,just another con job believed by the disciples,numbskulls

lol - probably some truth in that iceman - then again, there were plenty of lights on at 7.55pm

I just stayed at home and gave the fridge a workout

exactly what i might do.. under a candle

looking foward to seeing the number of participants within my area..

doubt the local council will turn of the street lights though

Well agro i didn`t eye one word because there was cleaning to be done (with elbow grease) and beyond an hour disappeared real quick and it was fun doing things by candle light.

No neighbours in eyesight of me turned off, which is understandable.How did you go or are you still reading?
