At 8:30pm tommorow be sure to leave your lights on BRIGHT for an hour, so everyone can see you reject green ideology.

Awesome concept and a great video... they really should've released it earlier, if they are organizing for tomorrow:o

Its a little late to mount a counter demonstration, but it might have been a good idea for all Global Warming, er, I mean Climate Change non-believers to light up their homes like the proverbial Christmas tree at 8:30 tomorrow night. :D

read an article today that if you burned one candle for every lightbulb you don't use at that time, you are creating 10-100 times more CO2 than if you just left the lightbulb on.

Whats wrong with turning the lights off to conserve power?

Absolutely nothing... But all they're really doing is lowering their energy bills, not saving the earth ;)

Well I think it's foolish to completely discount greenhouse gasses.

Obviously Venus is extra hot for a reason.

But yes, the political motivations are almost always socialist, or even communist.

I plan on turning every light that I see on, especially lights that are purposely turned off for this unproductive bullshit.

For sure, but the evidence for C02 is pretty bullshit man. Even if we get rid of all co2 emissions that mankind produces, that's only 3% of the total c02 that is produced on earth.
97% of C02 in the earths atmosphere is not from mankind's interference!



Obviously Venus is extra hot for a reason.


It's also MUCH closer to the sun, but you do have a point. I think the sun has a lot more to do with temperatures than greenhouse gases.



But yes, the political motivations are almost always socialist, or even communist.

yuppers... that's why we must remain vigilant. I worked with Environment Canada as a Weather observer for about 2 years, and I can tell you that there is anything but a consensus int he weather community when it comes to climate change.

the debate is very much 50/50

I'd rather turn off my lights and save money, thank you.

Now if this was an "save the economy" event and not a "save the earth" event, I could totally get behind it :cool:
