I vaguely remember there was an Earth Hour Turnoff done last year. One of those meaningless demonstrations that has zero impact other than to make participants feel good and is quickly forgotten. The videos are sort of funny in a gross out kinda way, though. Here’s the website.

Well I guess the libs need something to do now that their guy is in office and peace reigns over the earth.
@ #1
Poor bitter baby.
Who’s the ugly one with all the tattoos? I’ve never seen her polluting the screen before.
Some pretty serious turn-offs. Let’s see if we can beat those.
#3: She’s currently on 24.
#5 Thanks, no wonder I’ve never heard of her.
Funny.
Garafolo was funny in Mystery Men.
I liked Garofalo a lot more before she got the tattoos. For me, women with tattoos are a big turnoff.
I’ll be sure to turn everything in the house on just to balance them out.
Rich bitches.
If you’re hard-core about saving energy then go live in a shack with no utilities like Ted Kaczynski.
Or better yet, help produce more energy. Lobby for expansion of nuclear power!
Remember that those countries with the lowest energy usage are the poorest. These bitches couldn’t fly around in first-class or devote time to painting if they grew up in a hut in Burkina Faso.
#10 Umm, what do you expect from a couple of sub-human IQ types?
Didn’t I read last year where this event was actually a waste of energy? Something about power stations not being able to scale back for just an hour?
#8 – Mr Fusion – I’m with you. Tattooed ladies (other than Lydia) make me expect a gush of tobacco juice to hit the spittoon. Anyway, I thought she had many of the tats way back when she was on Saturday Night Live. No?
ill make sure that all my friends and I turn on every single energy using thing we can find in protest to this idiotic loony left idea
How much jet fuel is being burned to keep her in flight.
Maybe they should just turn off the engines.
No video here for me so I found a copy at Huff Post. That tattoo on Garofalo’s left shoulder is there and about that size but it was uglified for the ad.
I think small tats of personal sentiment are ok. Living posters are not.
They should commit suicide that day.
Best turn off.
As a Canadian, I apologize on behalf of our entire nation for Alanis Morissette.
#17–QB==She’s good looking, talented. Great song writer and performer.
Whats the beef?
Janeane and Alanis; huge turnoffs. HA!
Indulgences (carbon offsets) Lent (Earth Hour Turnoff) I expect to see the equivalent to flagellation and inquisitors soon. Will the “wasteful” sink or float?
A total waste of time and effort.
Luckily only a very small number of people will follow this.
More worryingly is the Carbon Tax that the Climate Hysterics has forced upon us. The Norwegian Government (ie me through taxes) wastes millions of $ each year on this.
Who gets the money? I hope he enjoys his cars and yachts!
