It maybe a good idea if the buildings in big cities were involved.
I left the one light on that i use at night.
Turning it off would have given me a nice warm feeling-
like peeing in a wetsuit-..but no one else would notice.............................Richo.

I only ever have the one light on ....in whichever room I happen to be at the time.
When I was a child we were always told to turn the light off when we left a room and now it is just an ingrained habit.
My children and grandchildren do the same.
The house I am living in does have aircon but I would have used for about 3 hrs in total this Summer.
I also switch the TV etc off at the wall when they are not being used.

No-one else is supposed to notice. YOU are supposed to notice.
That is the whole point.
(And the city towers DO turn off their lights).

This year was barely a word.
Better luck next year.
Yeah me too, I forgot all about it. I comfort myself with the fact I always turn off the light when it's not needed. Old school me as against young GenX hubby. Who has no truck with Earth Hour.

Anybody with half a brain would have no truck with this useless and inconsequent antic.

Luckily those of us with a whole brain think it is a worthwhile idea.
