As cynical as I am, I can think of no reason why I have to have my lights on tomorrow night from 8:30 – 9:30 p.m., so I suppose I’ll do this, even though I’m deeply suspect of political motives behind, well, just about anything . For those of you who don’t know — I didn’t until an hour ago — Earth Hour has gotten pretty big around the globe in the past fews years, with many millions of people and companies participating. Times Square will have signs go dark tomorrow night for example.
I can’t help wondering if this campaign, if ultimately successful, could someday blow the National Grid. Doesn’t power have to always be on somewhere for the thing to work? Hopefully someone has thought of that.
Once my lights go out, though, I’m building a fire. The people who started Earth Hour are probably the same people who want to ban wood-burning fireplaces, but hey, you can’t win ’em all.
Bill, we’ll have the fireplace roaring as well!!
