Earth hour no?

What people are saying about Earth Hour:

"The whole stunt requires people to turn off efficiently made and distributed energy - electricity - and replace it with alternatives - candles and gas barbecues - that have to be transported by oil-burning ships, trucks and cars to the point where they are to be set fire to in the open air without any means of capturing emissions. It’s insanity if the aim is to reduce CO2."

March 28, 2009, an hour after EarthHour


Seriously, what matters is doing what really saves the environment. And imho, its not just a mere switch-off of lights, but what is done after the hour.
