Here is the link to this year's glorious effort:

http://www.earthhourus.org/main.php

From the FAQs--count the verbs! Pinkie's Principles on Parts of Speech: More verbs = bigger shovel required.

What is Earth Hour?
  • Earth Hour is World Wildlife Fund's global initiative where individuals, businesses and governments turn off their lights for one hour to show their support for action on climate change.
  • Earth Hour is a symbolic event designed to engage people from all walks of life in the climate change discussion to send a strong message to our political leaders that we want them to take meaningful action on climate change.
  • The largest climate event in history where millions of people around the world will unite by turning off their lights for one hour, Earth Hour, to demand action on the climate crisis.
What do we hope to accomplish through Earth Hour 2009?
  • Through Earth Hour, WWF hopes to create political momentum for enacting national climate legislation and a global climate treaty.
  • Through Earth Hour, WWF will continue to educate and raise awareness about the climate crisis and offer ideas and solutions that people can merge into their daily lives.
  • Through Earth Hour, WWF aims to unify people's voices from around the world who are demanding action form our elected officials to solve the climate crisis.

Remember, Comrades--it's not what it DID or what it ACCOMPLISHED--it's what HAPPENED (and even that's a little hazy):

What happened during Earth Hour in 2008?
  • Earth Hour 2008 was an important step in the fight against climate change. Over 50 million people, including an estimated36 million in the U.S., representing over 400 cities on all seven continents turned out their lights in the largest climate event of all time.
  • The movement captured the public's imagination with lights going out at some of the world's most iconic landmarks including the Sydney Opera House, Bangkok's Wat Arun Buddhist temple, the Coliseum in Rome, Stockholm's Royal Castle, London's City Hall, New York's Empire State Building, Sears Tower in Chicago and the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Other symbols going dark included Cola-Cola's famous billboard in Times Square and the Google homepage.

At the very least, you'll feel as if you're doing SOMETHING, even if it's what you usually do each day--which surely beats the hell out of doing nothing:

Do I have to turn off all of my electricity for Earth Hour?
Not at all. Through Earth Hour we are asking people to turn off all non-essential lighting. Emergency lighting, televisions and computers can stay on for the hour. The main point of Earth Hour is to unite people, companies and governments around the world through the symbolic flip of a switch. Earth Hour in itself will not lower our carbon footprint, rather it sends a signal to those in a place of power that we as individuals and communities demand action.
The decision on which lights to turn off can be made individually, but usually consists of overhead lights in rooms (whether it is your house or a business), outdoor lighting that does not impact safety, computers, decorative lights, neon signs for advertising, televisions, desk lamps, etc.

Yes, methinks the world's leaders will be soiling themselves in fear of the masses this Saturday night.

What I said last year:

Commissarka Pinkie wrote:As I understand it, this is just the lights. It doesn't include the TV, DVD player, Playstation, stereo, computers, refrigerator, microwave, air conditioner, etc. Just the lights.

And who's in school at 8 pm on a Saturday night? I mean, besides vandals?


What will you do when the lights are off? We have lots of ideas.


I clicked on that link, expecting to see the totally original "have wild monkey sex with whoever is with you" and was disappointed to see NO IDEAS! Then I remembered I could still watch TV, listen to the stereo, play on the computer, etc.

You know what would work just as well? If we all wore Awareness Ribbons to show how much we cared about The Planet.
<br>The organizers obviously read my words, for this year they've given us lots of ideas--click on Tools. The ideas are listed in a PDF file to prevent Pinkie from copying and pasting and inserting sarcastic comments here at the Cube, but they include candlelight dinners, bathing by candlelight, making shadow pictures on the wall with a flashlight, playing flashlight tag, reading by candlelight (great for eyestrain), and writing letters by candlelight. You'll feel like Lincoln in his log cabin!

And as for asking all businesses, schools, organizations and government offices to do this at 8:30 pm on a Saturday night, I would like to remind the Collective that Klaatu chose 12 noon on a weekday for his little demo.

Which only goes to show, comrades, there is so much more the Left can learn from space aliens!

Au' Naturale swimming in a warm ocean followed by sipping on a cool Mai Tai, watching the sun go down, knowing that I am not using one ounce of energy (at least not mine), and definitely needing no light of the manmade kind.

This is how I will celebrate Earth Hour, that is if the sun is down by that time. No problem.
I'll simply fly to where it is setting!

Which Comrade's turn is it to watch Meow and his five finger discount operation this year?
He seems to thrive in this kind of environment.
I recall that after the lights went out at his disco dacha Earth Hour celebration, more than a few Proles were pilfered and were liberated from their capitalist exploitation units, Party™ approved jewelry now known as bling, and various sundry items. Somebody even took The Pup's dog tags.

I see the Obama
a) Having some big press confrence showing him turning of a lightswitch.
b) Having some big press confrence imploring people to turn off their lights
c) Seeding the ThoughPolice (a.k.a. the EPA) to those who refuse to participate.

Let's expand on that, some people are in bed around 8, some people are in some routine and have a lot of stuff. Businesses are closed, schools are closed, the places that use the most electricity are probably closed. My point is, is 8:00 pm a great time to do this? Probably not, but I don't think 12:00pm would be a great time either. So their timing is bad, in many ways.

That is a wise choice Comrade Border Collie. I know you are new here, and until you have delved deeply into the archives here, you can only imagine the true legend of debauchery and greed that is the Chairman. Meow Begone™ is a proven deterrent to the wiles of the Chairman. Look at me, I still have my gold plated dentures soaking in a virgin girls skull courtesy of Comrade Dr Amin, sitting next to my Hummel collection that I liberated from the Chairman er...bought at the Party's Special Store 666, totally unmolested by the Chairman.

Yes indeed, Uber Top Dog. I soon came to the realization that in order to benefit myself the collective, it would behoove me to spy on research many things. Even so, I feel I have only scratched the surface of the complexities of the Chairman. All the better to be prepared should his attention be directed my way.

I would not scratch too deeply....it is said that the ooze of the Chairman can turn a comrade into a pillar of petrified People's poop. Just a rumor mind you, but who wants to find out? Learn from the Chairman's antics however. I for one respect the Chairman beyond question, my loyalty to the Chairman is legendary, but of course that doesn't stop me from using Meow Begone to protect my ass...ets.

Who would've thought keeping a bar of soap around your pilfered cash would keep Meow at bay? Shit, we should've thought of this earlier -- much, much earlier. Hell, we might have out raised the Republicans if we would've thought of this earlier!

Maybe the Chairman has discovered a means to negate the effects of Meow Begone™. He may have gotten a new gas mask that will let him roam without smelling the Meow Begone™.

He may be visiting some comrades abode right now.

One thing Comrade President (Dullard) Nancy, that is not soap, though I suppose that could be an effective substitute, that is cheese. You can imagine the joy I had when I discovered this simple yet effective principle! It has also proved to be quite a lucrative cash cow....(beg your pardon Comrade Nancy).In the end, we should have foreseen this long ago, given the Chairman's inate ability to smell a trap.

Komrade Zarkof, do you really think that one such as the Chairnan who never fails to remind anyone captive or otherwise detained, how good looking he is would ever put on such a mask?

You must be new here comrade Gulag Man, Light is that thing you see around the Obamasiah when he makes a public appearance.

Yes comrade, many years in camps shoveling for the people.

Obamasiah is deity? He is ultimate chairman?

I wish to shovel for Obamasiah. Maybe he will give me potato or beet? Maybe meat for soup? I will shovel many times.

Seems the "One" really does think the legalization of pot will lead us into properity. Just think of all the economic stimulus this provides to the junk food industry.

earth hour day today!
At 20:00 your time, be sure to be a good comrade and turn off all your lights, and it would be a good time to catch up on those pesky household chores. Utilize your dish washer and vacuum cleaner. Do some laundry, hey how many years has it been since you ironed your clothes? Bake a roast or better yet COOKIES. Dont forget to turn on your TV and or entertainment center. Fire up the air conditioner or space heater as the situation dictates and dont forget to use your ceiling fans.
And sure, why not-- Microwave or Air Pop some popcorn and blend up a milkshake or smoothie -- you deserve it for combating Global WarmingTM and saving the earth.

all hail TheOne

It would seem that supposedly a billion people are going to turn off their lights for an hour in a another stupid "awareness building" stunt.
That's one billion either gullible, stupid, or feel good people! Several Obama supporters are rumored to be among them.

Think about it folks, if the Feel Good Buzybodies had their way, tonight for a whole hour, the WHOLE WORLD would look like North Korea.

At RaccoonZvezda's place, I'll have every blasted light going, including the porch light...hell I might even put up the X-Mas Lights on the porch!!
I wish I was rich, I'd rent a pair of spotlights.

If Americans want to lower the use of oil and coal, then they should support Nuclear Power, instead of resorting to a Luddite solution and pushing the Socialist agenda of training the public to make do with less...less technology...less energy...less mobility...less money...less reason...less lifestyle...less expectations...less freedom.

Welcome to the nature of future serfdom.

Hell, with all the money the Government blew recently you could have bought quite a few modern and safe nuclear power plants.

I'm not for civilization pumping out pollution, but I do believe that we can use our knowledge to develop and USE the tech to produce bountiful energy and raise the standard of living for billions of our fellow human beings and pull them out of squalor. Doing any thing less, is to do a disservice for all of humanity and thousands of years of human struggle.

We should all be striving to LIGHT THE WAY INTO A GLORIOUS FUTURE...NOT GROVELING IN THE DARK!!

Think about it.

Krap...the Thought Police are here...again...

Welcome to the Cube, Comrade Raccoon!

Throughout history, civilizations have always been rising and declining. While details differed, one trait has always been common.
  • A civilization begins to rise when it accumulates a critical mass of people desiring more power and complexity of social, economic, and political structures.

  • A civilization begins to decline when it accumulates a critical mass of people desiring less power and less complex social, economic, and political structures.
While both types of people are always present in any civilization, the prevalence of one of the types indicates a change in the historical trend.

The word "change" means a lot of things. It seems that in the minds of Obama supporters it meant a change towards:
  • a simpler social structure (government overlords and equally poor dependent masses).
  • a simpler economic structure (state-run planned economy w/o capitalist competition).
  • a simpler political structure (one-party rule, totalitarian central government, cult of personality of a leader).
The word "hope" also means many things. I just hope that the last election was not really an indication of America turning towards the simplification, but the result of a cunning campaign strategy that bamboozled many people who were too naive and honest to suspect that somebody could be screwing with their minds so badly.

The next election will show.

Some glorious day in the near future -- possibly next Tuesday -- people all across this now great socialist nation will be able to vote multiple times simply by switching on and off the light switch.

And if their fiddling with the switch electrocutes them or causes a fire, well, that is just fine, too. Dead voters are our strongest and most loyal voting bloc.

I for one am most certainly pleased that the progressives' approved science once again enlightens us. First it warned us of global cooling, which we just narrowly avoided and dominated with thanks to the glorious spirit of Lenin, then of global warming, which is scientifically proven to be caused by Reagan, and now that activation energy is in no way greater than maintainance energy, thus renderring Earth Hour worthwhile and by no means a tactic by thought-controlling governments to comfort citizens with the thought of saving a planet that isn't actually in much danger, thus lulling them into a smug sense of self-righteousness and love of the government, which will use that newfound trust to grasp more power and eventually control its citizens both financially and socially. Oh wait. It is. And that's marvelous! Simply marvelous! Comrades, I propose a toast.

So if I spent the day driving about town, shopping, looking at the falls near the Pillsbury Mill and playing with the kids do I have to take a beating? I do perennially ask the kids that rhetorical chestnut "Do we have to have every goddamn light on at once in this house?" to which they still have not found the right answer so I think I'm doing my bit to save the earth.

What I don't get about the whole earth day thing is how turning off your lights is going to make a whoop of difference. Hell, if what the heirophants of science are proselytizing and the sun is going to zap us with a globule of plasma thus ruining our entire electrical system and sending us back to the stone age so that we end up crouching over a dung fire scratching our bunions with a broken shard of crockery (it's true: I heard it on El Rushbo and checked it on Drudge) then oughtn't we to use as much fucking energy now while we still can? Moreover if, as the circumnavigating omniscience of the Mayan prophets would have it, the comet Nibiru hits earth on 12 21 2012 (or Apophis on Friday the 13th of April 2029; or any other clumsy piece of truck-sized space rubble that blunders into our God appointed trajectory) then we're all screwed!!!

Comrades,

I also did my part to save power, both at the People's Hell's Kitchen™ and at my restaurant Lucretia(tm). I made my staff cook outside, using the dead wood and brush they raked around the Gulag. This also prepared the area to plant the Spring crop of beets, potatoes and cabbage. I do try to make the proles multi-task whenever possible. (got to keep them tired out, so they don't grumble as much).
The kitchen was completely dark; There were quite a few knife accidents...... blood spattering everywhere, so I insisted the proles cook outside after that . The stupid morons! They set the fire too close to the kitchen door. Naturally, it caught fire! By the time the fire department got there, (got lost in the dark), it looked like Paris burning!

The restaurant was lit by candle light (boy did it stink in there, damn tallow candles!). Our own MTESOS and Slick Willie stopped in for a late nightcap and I had to kick Mr. Lothario out (that was kind of fun) because he was groping everyone but his wife in the dark, causing many loud shrieks and complaints among the patrons. All in all comrades, it was a calamitious night!!!

Madame Secretary told me not to worry about Casanova Bill, the f**in' scumbag, I heard her say, that she had some "la venganza" planned for him later. I am an old seasoned revolutionary, but even I shuddered to imagine what was in store for the puta.....spits on the floor with disgust....

So as far as I am concerned, F**k EARTH HOUR! I sacrifice too much for the World of Next Tuesday(tm) already! I refuse to lose $$$$ to promote this senseless, asinine stunt.......Dear Father Lenin (may he be praised always)...EARTH DAY ISN'T EVEN HERE YET!

Yes, yes I did my part last night Comrades, I got the Goons Highly Trained Troopers on an old Boeing 707, with the 50's Pratt & Whitney JT3C Kero Burning engines. We taxied multiple times until, I ran it up to Full Military power until all 4 of those antiques were burning "Moocho Fuel" Dropped the Brakes Hit VR, burning hundreds more pounds of fuel, away we went.

One of the more intelligent Goons Highly trained Troopers(As if there were such a thing), said Commissar where are we going? I told him no where really, we are just going for a ride, He then ask if he could hang his head out of a window....I normally would have had him tossed out in to space but I needed the extra weight to do my part for the movement. I marveled at the aerial view of our beloved "Camp Fluffy" And my 10 Million light bulb extravaganza, in honor of our communist Progressive heroes, Lenin, Marx, Che Gourmet, Theocritus, and my old friend Vodkavich.

We turned south flying over Ranch o De Rio Grande, and enjoyed the light show, (But really Theocritus, the 4 Acre Lighted representation of Bruno dressed as Carmen Miranda.... Breath taking as it maybe....Oh ok we liked it!) Then we flew over Marshal Pupovich's Compound in Louisiana I had the Goons Highly Trained Troopers, "Moon" him....

We had an over all fun evening, as an extra touch I had them leave all the vehicles running.
It's nice to be a "Made Progressive"

Is that your version of a poster for the Revolutionary Road movie showing the sunny underside of the dark capitalist reality?

I like the fact that the only one with the cigarette is Obama. And he's also the only one without shoes.

Yes, and if you play the song "Revolution #9" from the previous LP album backwards (The Red Album) you will hear a coded message. The cigarette and the bare feet were symbolic as well. But that is how rumors get started.

Dear me! Do you know what this means?

This picture, showing Obama in bare feet and with a cigarette, is one of the many signs that The One might be--well, mortal.

Other signs of this unbelievable mortality are in other pictures and words from his speeches; even in subliminal messages played backwards on his teleprompter.

But I want so much to believe he's immortal. That's he's not of this world. That he was sent from above or below or from way out there somewhere to bring us Hope and Change.

And while Obama is far and away the cutest one, I've never bought the idea of Hugo as "The Quiet Socalist."

Comrade Carlin was, regardless of past words, very happy for the lights going out at skyscrapers this Glorious Earth Day, as it promulgated the hatred of the rich he and The People so dearly have. Of course he was confused about the proper inclinations of the Environmentalists, but I think now he is perhaps, after the fact, enjoying the view of the darkness he brow beat into the deserved rich.

And isn't that rich.

May The One bless his corpse.

It would seem that supposedly a billion people are going to turn off their lights for an hour in a another stupid "awareness building" stunt.
That's one billion either gullible, stupid, or feel good people! Several Obama supporters are rumored to be among them.

Comrade, they neglected to tell you, this billion people without lights are all in North Korea. Of course, that will be the case tomorrow night as well, and the night after that.... and the....

See, they care more for this planet than the rest of us. We should all feel guilt about that... with the exception of us Inner Circle More Equal than comrades. We have too much "work" to do to take care of all you proles, that and we don't dare turn out the lights with the Chairman on the loose.

Hopefully there will be a day -- a Tuesday, if you will -- when the friendly invitation to turn out the lights will instead be an enforced mandate to turn out the lights -- a mandate that would carry the stiff penalty of DEATH if not observed by every man, woman and child.

Note, comrades, that fruit salad in the last photograph is over chest. Fruit salad in first glorious picture is over... m... fruit salad. If the tradition of wearing medals over the heart is said to represent excellence in those things related to the seat of emotions, is it safe to assume that the other more flexible comrade's seat of emotions is a bit further in the southern regions?

Comrade Nick, I must warn you not to abuse the progressive kindness of The Collective. You are liable to wake up at 3am with a very aggressive goon squad herding you off to the Gulag. You do keep a bag with warm clothes, a shovel, stout shoes, three days travel rations, basic toiletries, and a flask of vodka on hand for your inevitable trip to the Gulag don't you?

IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN, COMRADES!!!

https://www.myearthhour.org/home


Slight time change, however. This year, in order to really shake things up and grab even more attention, Earth Hour will begin at 8:30 pm--that's half past the usual hour--local time!

Yes, at 8:30 pm on Saturday evening, March 27, 2010--all schools, government offices, and public buildings--which are always wide open and ablaze with lights and activity every other Saturday night--will go dark to send world leaders the same message we've been sending them every year:

--That the time is RIGHT FREAKING NOW!!!

--That there is NO LONGER ONE SINGLE MOMENT TO LOSE!!!

--That if they ignore our demand to make a call for action to discuss and examine the various ways we can all search for solutions to this increasingly dangerous crisis, then--then--well, THE CONSEQUENCES ARE JUST TOO DIRE TO IGNORE, AND TOO HIDEOUS TO CONTEMPLATE!!!

--That this time, WE REALLY MEAN IT!!!

--That furthermore, if something isn't done right freaking now, THEN DAMMIT WE'RE JUST GOING TO TURN OUT THE LIGHTS FOR ONE WHOLE HOUR NEXT YEAR, TOO--AND MAYBE THEN, YOU BOZOS WILL FINALLY GET IT!!

As always, candlelight vigils and other candlelit activities are strongly encouraged during this most sacred of hours. Pay no heed to the naysayers, deniers, and doubtmongers who will surely point out that a global proliferation of candles will suck even more precious oxygen out of Earth's fragile atmosphere. Fine time they choose to suddenly want to restore science to its rightful place! We can do it BECAUSE WE CARE!

La! La! La! La!

Oh! Oh! Oh!

Sorry, I've been singing that song ever since I got the Jiffy-Lobo. Life has taken on a whole new luster since I stopped thinking.

That's great! Earth hour. That'll raise everybody's awareness. We're going to turn out the lights! And watch TV! And change the world... That'll show 'em.

Hey, wait a second. We do that a lot around prime-time. Turn out the lights and watch TV. Hmmmm... Oh, well. No time to think. Did you see the latest Obama speech? It was like song. So beautiful. So sweet. So filled with words. It just went on and on like a never ending love song. And that's how I feel.

Ever since my Jiffy-Lobo there's a song in my heart and I'm ready to sing!

Obama, obama, obama

La! La! La! La!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Ohhhhh!

Comrades,

We are thinking too small. It's time to replace "Earth Hour Lights Out" with "Earth Decade Lights Out." Therefore, I'm starting a new post today (March 9, 2010) on the subject:
"Earth Decade Lights Out"

Now let's start thinking bigger. GAIA Minister Neytiri agrees with me. If we make 2010 the year we commence living within the harmony-with-nature societal rules that hold sway on her native planet, Pandora, we can reverse Global Warming within 10 years and thus be getting ready for the next Ice Age.

Come and reason with me.

TOMORROW NIGHT, COMRADES!!! DON'T FORGET!!!

And as for you, Gorbels Cube, do be serious. If we were to do this for a whole decade, then the message we want to send to our leaders would totally lose its impact. They might completely forget why we're doing this in the first place--which is to raise awareness of the dire need to take immediate action to address the urgent problem of what steps we should take to start conserving our planet's resources NOW--before it's too late.

Imagine if our anti-war sisters in Code Pink and Boobs Not Bombs decided to bare their boobs for a whole decade, instead of just an hour or so on the anniversary of the war's start! Surely you agree that after a while, you'd completely forget why they're doing it.

You wouldn't want that to happen, would you?

And I'll remind you again, I'm referring to true Progressive women.

Just to make sure, you know...like the old saying "Spring ahead, Fall behind" I wanted to make doubly sure I don't miss it so I set my Energy RedStar Approved gas powered alarm clock for 8:30PM tomorrow night.
I'd hate to Fall behind such progress as North Korea.

I'm as excited as a Bourak at Miraj.
