Earth Day 2009 Commentary

A quick video commentary on the 2009 Earth Day lights-out hour and the fact my home town of Burnham on Sea seemed not to care at all and appeared to be business as usual on a saturday night...as it happened I was not surprised by this and in fact I took my camera out to shoot the footage to made this video because I knew thetown would be lit up like a christmas tree.

I am more than happy to save energy as

a) It costs us money

b) We don't really know how much cheap energy we have left.

But I have had an utter gut full of hypocrite politicians telling us all to change our lives, pay more tax and restrict our choices. They don't and the whole global warming scam just leaves me cold.

HOWEVER, we shouldn't throw the baby out with the bathwater. So I say good luck to REAL energy saving initiatives, that make it easy for us all to run our lives efficiently .

agreed in full.

Maybe people just don't buy that their actions are causing this planet much, if any harm at all.

thanks for the comment. I am of the belief that REAL science has shown mankind only contributes about 5% to the over all effect on climate change and that the majority of the changes are down to natural cycles that last thousands of years, but to me events like this are supposed to be a show of unity in humanity against the common enemies of over rown governemnts and soul-less comercialism.
