Earth Hour

It’s an embarrassment that Australia was the country that came up with the idea of Earth Hour. Lately, I’ve been reading a few articles from different countries mocking us for being the idiots that started it.

But if we started it, the Canadians ran with it. Similar numbers of Canadians signed up to it as Americans, despite having 1/10th the population of the United States.

I’m not sure people realised how futile Earth Hour was. By dropping electricity percentage by 5% across a small group of countries, we’ve delayed Global Warming by approximately 20 seconds. Woohoo!

Someone at my work said “so long as it keeps the wankers happy.” And I find myself agreeing with this sentiment. The great thing about lefties is their obsession with symbolism means nothing ever gets done by them. Which means less lives destroyed by their good intentions.
