Earth Hour, What Good Is It?

Posted by: Marcelle

Earth Hour has come and gone for another year.  Did you turn off the lights to watch TV in the dark?  I hope so.  We did.  Celine Dione was on tv and I wasn’t going to miss that.  What an incredible woman.  What an inspiration to all of us.

And that got Marcelle and I talking about real commitment vs token offerings.  What do I mean?  I am talking about Earth Hour, that’s what I mean.  Bottom line, it is just a token offering to the planet?

For the die-hards, they might even turn off the TV and just sit in the dark for the hour.  But lets get serious.  What did we actually do?  Those who participated stopped their usual life styles for 1 hour.  Maybe we should  have Earth Hour at 3:00 a.m. when everyone is asleep.  That way it wouldn’t inconvenience anyone at all and we could all feel good about ourselves.

Are you really serious about helping this planet?  Then how about Earth Week, where for 1 week we all do what we can to cut back on our energy usage.  Just think, taking the bus to work instead of your car, or even riding a bike.  Just think, turning down the thermometer in your house a few degrees for a whole week.  Just think, stopping unproductive waste of our precious recources?

And why wouldn’t we do that?  We have thought of a few reasons:

  1. It would be uncomfortable.
  2. Industry would be against it as we might find that we don’t need to consume as much as we do now.
  3. This could revolutionize our whole way of living.  And oh the dire consequences for the car industry, and on and on and on.

 

So what do you think?  Is Earth Hour worth the effort, or should we strive for something meaningful?
