I assume now that The Age actually insists all its writers tell
exaggerations and plain untruths to hype up Earth Hour.
Latest evidence is columnist Traceeeeee Hutchison:
Earth Hour was, by all accounts, a tremendous success. Some 40 countries
took part including millions of Australians who saved thousands and
thousands of black balloon-fulls of deadly carbon dioxide emissions and
registered an impressive 11.4% drop in energy consumption in the
process. Well done us.
Attention, Ms Hutchison. Here are the cold facts, as opposed to your
overheated claims:
The country's power use (as measured by NEMMCO) for that one hour dipped
by four per cent-or 3.2 per cent of normal weekday use. AGL Energy
estimated Victoria's emissions were cut by just 30 tonnes-the equivalent
of taking just eight average Australian cars off the road for a year. In
NSW the cut was estimated at no more than the annual emissions of just
one average Australian.
I often wonder why, if catastrophic man-made global warming is indeed so
obviously true and the solutions such obvious no-brainers, that warming
preachers feel the need to tell so many ****kies.
UPDATE
More of the same, this time from Huw Evans who demonstrates why he was
handpicked by Kevin Rudd to co-chair the ludicrous "youth summit" he now
defends:
The science tells us we are facing a fried future that threatens our
very existence.
Been listening too much to "Cannibals" Ted Turner. But exaggeration has
its rewards, clearly.
