I hear what you guys are saying and agree with you all fully, heck if you want to believe research there are plenty of scientists who say the world should of ended already, or we should be ruled by aliens
. Anyway the reason I did it was not for climate change but waste. During earth hour 1% of our generating capacity for one hour was saved which is pretty tiny. The problem comes in the fact that South Africa is running out of coal, make no mistake about that. Now how much coal is wasted a year on producing power that is being wasted? Now if that coal was being used wiser it could either be sold internationally to bring more foreign currency in or could be left under ground for longer to give is power for longer, that’s the way I see it.
As for the bunny huggers, well ya
. They go one about how the sea levels will rise and bla bla, sure they will rise, but the latest figures I saw were not that much and in a long time. They say large parts of cities like new York will be below sea level in a couple decades, and then fail to mention that well alot of counties like Holland are below sea level.
So pretty much each to his own, sure the climates are changing but there are other factors affecting it. Some people did earth hour for climate change, I did mine against wastage, which is so large in our modern lifestyle. And again quoting from my first post, what did it do, absolutely nothing
