while all the servers around the world account for much, much more  :roll:

I would, but the amount of computers I see around the world left on (school for eg) needlessly overnight plus the lights anger me.

nope won't do it.

We get our power from dams, so electricity is not the worst polluting factor in this neck of the woods.

Paper waste is that much more of a trouble here. So i say close all the govenement offices for a day (unpaid day off), That will save a lot of trees. :P

Pilots celebrating Earth Hour

Pilot 1: Hey it's Earth Hour. 
Pilot 2: Positive, Sir. 8:30PM!
Pilot 1: Shut down the engines.
*Pilot 2 pulls the throttle down to 0*

...You know what happens next.

You couldn't find a comeback so you decide to post that...  :-\

To take the aircraft example, simply setting speed to the economic cruise speed would be efficient.
