Re: Earth Hour Turn Everything Off For An Hour Or So

I don't know about this. when I go to bed, the only thing that has power is my microwave(clock) and my fridge. For about 7 - 8 hours every nite and M-F almost all day. I kinda think that covers me and most quite afew of others. If we turned those off the savings would be unmeasureable.

Ever see how much power is wasted at construction site? Multiple 500+ watt halogen lites running 24 hours. Shopping malls? The list goes on. To put this burden on John Q. Public is a tad pretentious.
