Reviews for Earth Hour

[plasticmanticor]

yay earth! uhh wat?

to all the people who wrote a review trashing the earth: stop playing halo for a few minutes and realize that we cant quite move into space yet.
To all those ranting about how important earth day is: shut up already! we already know!
My opinion: i already do earth hour. a lot of em a day. i call it turning off the lights to go to sleep and turning off the lights cuz its the middle of the day
Ridiculous story:
I remember how i used to get a little tree to plant every single year on earth day from school. Every single one died in its first year. lets say every school system did that. thats tens of millions of trees that were uprooted from professional care that could have been useful in removing greenhouse gasses. All of those trees were put into individual plastic bags which were most likely thrown away clogging up landfills. End result? 50 million less trees in the world and 50 million more plastic bags in landfills. so why did we do this earth day activity?
Nice animation job, kinda reminded me of Dane Cook's rant about helping starving people in africa

Funny

Jokes aside, you bring an interesting point of view.

Don't be so smug.

The flash was OK. The animation was relatively good, but I didn't find this particularly humorous. The music didn't really fit either. Now, on to political rant:

Earth hour is a joke. People turn their lights off for one hour and act smug about how much they've "helped the earth." Compared to modern electricity chugging devices like refrigerators, computers, and televisions, lights are becoming a smaller and smaller portion of US electricity usage every year. If you use florescent lights, which consume a large amount of electricity when turning on, then shutting those off for an hour had about nil effect on total power consumption. Hybrid cars don't help the earth either. The process involved in making that expensive rechargeable battery releases all kinds of toxic crap into the environment.

I did not participate in Earth Hour. However, I have had the lights off in my room for the past four hours even though it's pitch black outside, using my laptop which consumes a very small amount of electricity. So shoot me.

In conclusion, instead of participating in a minor event once per year, try to be more eco-friendly all year long. Walk if it's close enough. Turn off the lights before you leave the room. Drive in a way that uses less gasoline (Hint: Try hitting the brakes only when absolutely necessary. If there's a red light up ahead, don't drive as fast as possible to the area and then brake. Take your foot off the gas pedal and slowly approach the light. People will honk at you, but you can ignore them. By the time you reach the light, it will change to green.) Turn the thermostat to 60 in winter and 75 in summer.

tl;dr: Earth hour is for being smug. Save some electricity 24/7/365 instead.

Srs business!

i love the message

if people dont get the message through all the media. I guess it is only fitting to threaten them :D

good :)

i think that was well thought for. i agree, the earth diserves at least one hour of no-lights. everyday should be earth day.

so recycle.
