"It would not do if a 500 megawatt coal-fired power plant was purring along, generating 250 megawatts during “Earth Hour” when, at the conclusion of the exercise, 500 megawatts would suddenly needed again. A coal-fired power plant cannot respond to that kind of demand increase at a moment’s notice. The smart thing to do would be to keep the power plant operating at capacity and dump excess electricity that was not – for the moment – needed."

(is this a carbon neutral balloon?)It goes without saying that there are real and dangerous environmental crises such as nuclear material, pesticides, plastics, chemtrails, the honey bee dieoff. However CO2 is if anything beneficial to our climate. Clean coal only releases CO2 into the atmosphere. More atmospheric CO2 if anything might help us, as it will increase crop yields.
But that's beside the point. The CO2phobes don't know what they are bringing in under the cover of concern for the Earth. That's why they are called Watermelons.

I have all my lights on and a pyrotechnic display outside.

Nice one - someone commented somewhere they were planning on burning a t(i/y)re.

Only one other house I could see appeared to observe the hour. As they switched their lights back on, I switched most of ours off. Hope they noticed. tee hee
