The annual let’s sit around in the dark for one hour is on again this Saturday.
It’s actually a glimpse of what our future is like thanks to the Gillard government’s Carbon Tax.
Earth Hour is EVERY hour in North Korea.
So don’t sit in the dark this Saturday night. Turn all the lights and recognise the incredible accomplishments of the human race. The world is worth saving from darkness.
The only good thing to come from Earth Hour is all the new future taxpayers that will be born in December.

Barnaby Is Right 
Turning off lights to save the planet!!! More green froggies out there, Go jump away. Cory Bernardi, Andy Semple and yourself advocate leaving all the lights on to recognise human achievement in many many areas, particularly medicine. Good idea.
Turn the lights off one night in the year and flood the city with lights on a number of nights throughout the year. Doesn’t make any sense whatsoever.
