An Hour of Darkness?

While listening to the radio this morning, I heard an advertisement for Earth Hour to be 'celebrated' on March 28th at 8:30 pm.

God has called us to be stewards of the Earth and all that is in it. We need to be faithful to what he has called us to do. However, I do believe that he gave wisdom and insight to men and women to invent things...like electricity. We should not be wasteful of anything with which we have been blessed. That said, I am not turning off my lights at 8:30 on March 28th! My inclination is to turn every light in the house on! Of course, that is wasteful, but in some twisted way it might make me feel better.

If "every light makes a statement"? What is your statement, WWF? This is nothing more than symbolism over substance. One night a year for one hour? What does this prove?

Turn lights and other electric using appliances off when you are not using them! Just be responsible!

OK, I'm done.
