Green Tip 25: Lights Out for Earth Hour

TURN OFF LIGHTS

Always turn off incandescent bulbs when you leave a room. Fluorescent bulbs are more affected by the number of times it is switched on and off, so turn them off when you leave a room for 15 minutes or more. You'll save energy on the bulb itself, but also on cooling costs, as lights contribute heat to a room.

Tonight is Earth hour, which means we'll be turning off the lights and more - computers, electronics, televisions ... here's a thought spend time cuddling with a loved one? Prepare dinner before the hour and then enjoy it by candlelight or (and my personal favourite) take a nap before going out tonight!

As fantastic as earth hour is at building awareness I have to wonder, does turning off our lights for an hour really enough, does it do that much to help conserve energy?  I would think a day like "no-red meat day" or "no-fuel hour" would make a lot more sense.


Maybe one day :)
