> it has good intention, but then you see all the ttc busses and trains spitting out black shit every day you have to ask. why doesnt the government try and fix some of these other problems. i do my part and turn off the lights after leaving a room or if no one is in a room turn it off but no matter what everyone does we have already screwed the earth up to the point where it will take hundreds of years with no electricity to undo. but all in all earth hour was ok. i think its mostly just to raise awareness.

I dont mean to single you out…but I see you’re on the right track, but every little does count. It’s easy to fall into the mentality of “no one else cares, why should I?”

but for those who don’t understand why the government is trying to raise awarness, may I suggest a little light reading?

[http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20080328.woxfordanal0331/BNStory/energy/home](http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20080328.woxfordanal0331/BNStory/energy/home)

If you read that, you’ll understand why.

I don’t think a lot of people take energy issue seriously. Or the impact it has on society…not to mention the environment…

What makes the world markets turn? Money? Bullion?

Look around again…Oil

what spurred the industrial revolution? Heck…what even made cars viable? Cheap crude oil

Go search Hubberts Peak, and you’ll see why energy awareness is something that is a necessity rather than a problem we sweep under the rug.

Then open your eyes and see what REALLY goes on in the world.
