Earth Hour 2009 to promote energy conservation by turning out the lights is the dumbest annual event.?
Whoever brilliant idea is not that bright either it doesn’t help anyone. Would it be better to take action to help poor people around the world ? I think this is a waste of time. What do you think ?
Is a shame that this organizers are using this for their own benefit.
What are some genuine uncertainties regarding climate change?
It’s widely accepted that human activities are impacting upon the climate and this is supported by reconstructed, observational and empirical evidence. Within the climatic systems there are many inherent complexities and uncertainties.

What do you consider to be the uncertainties regarding climate change, what are the inconsistencies and in which specific areas do you feel a greater comprehension would be of significant benefit?

Read MoreIn deciding whether to be green, should I consider costs and benefits or just benefits?
For example, it’s a foregone conclustion that most recycling incurs a lot more cost than it provides a benefit. And if the U.S. were to follow the Kyoto accord, it would spend untold billions to make a statistically insignificant change in global temperature. Should I consider costs when deciding whether to be green, or does politicial correctness and green hysteria require me to consider only the benefits?
