The Real Meaning of Earth Hour
The folks over at the Ayn Rand Institute (ARI) published a insightful analysis of the recent earth hour in which all humans were asked to turn off lights (at night) for an hour as a symbolic demonstration of their hatred of human activity.
The ARI article identifies the actual meaning of Earth Hour (the premises that go in to its purpose), and asks whether most people could or would support an “Earth Month” in which all electricity is extinguished for 30 days.
Food would spoil and food production would all but halt, criminals would achieve stealth, tap water would not be treated, hospitals would completely close at dusk, etc. In short, the horrific occurrence would perhaps allow people to renew their appreciation for modern technology and the existence of fuels to power it.
This idea of extending Earth Hour to Earth Month further exposes the blatant hypocrisy and contradictions of those giving lip service to Earth Hour, and the nightmarish “utopia” envisioned by the environmentalist movement at large.
