Earth Hour - How I'll be celebrating

You may have heard or read about Earth Hour, which will take place tomorrow between 8 and 9 PM at your local time. The gist of this episode of environmental inanity is to shut off all of your electricity consuming devices as a purely symbolic gesture (even the proponents of this nonsense acknowledge it's a meaningless effort) to raise awareness about "climate change", "global warming", and the complete myth that carbon dioxide is a pollutant.

So, I hereby pledge that I will celebrate Earth Hour tomorrow, March 29, 2008 between the hours of 2000 and 2100 Eastern Daylight Time by:

1) Insuring that every single electric light in my house is turned on.
2) Running both cars at idle (for at least part of the hour)
3) Turning on and running as many of our appliances as possible during the hour.
4) Excercising, so I can generate even more carbon dioxide on my own.
5) Finally, I'll light a nice cheerful wood fire in my fireplace.

In short, I am going to do everything I can to increase my so-called "carbon footprint". I encourage you to do the same. Stand up for rationality over pseudo-science and manufactured crises.

And never forget that environmentalism isn't about saving the environment; it's about destroying capitalism, and thus freedom.
