You may have seen that environmental groups are asking folks to turn off their lights for one hour this Saturday. We at Pfft, Science! can't argue with the sentiment that governments around the world need to address global warming. Turning off the lights for an hour won't make much of a difference literally, but we understand the symbolic measure. Our problem isn't that we should be looking out for the planet. It's more that we are concerned with who will benefit from a dark hour to prey upon humanity!
Turn out. Take action.
Be part of this historic event.

The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is asking individuals, businesses, governments and organizations around the world to turn off their lights for one hour – Earth Hour – to make a global statement of concern about climate change and to demonstrate commitment to finding solutions. By turning off your lights for one hour, you will join hundreds of millions of people around the world in making a bold statement about climate change. You will send a message that Americans care about this issue and stand with the rest of the world in finding solutions to the escalating climate crisis.
