I feel better as I switched last year all my lights to fluorescent and my stuff to very efficient appliances. Yes to this initiative if it can make people aware of the situation at hand... and act accordingly... :) Well, I didn’t follow it either… my bad.

If any of you idiots who say this doesn't work, then you obviously didn't even look at the website. They've saved a SHITLOAD of energy from AUSTRALIA ALONE last year. @Matt:

That's what I think, as a bitter NC State fan :( @That guy: Yeah, those sites are already doing it full time, but it's big when Google does it because so many people will see it. @Matt: True, it is just theater from Google. BUT, if it gets a ton of people's attention, then 'tis worthy theater. @wannabedesi: I'm ashamed to admit it, but........ I missed it too. @Adam: No UNC game is ever worth watching, even if it’s not Earth Hour. That’s what I think, as a bitter NC State fan :(

This is just theater from Google, one of the biggest energy consumers in the world. I bet Al Gore's 10,000 square foot energy hog home doesn't go dark either.
