You can't force anyone to do it. Just do it for you and don't worry about her.

be a good boy and do what your mother tells you!!
that's something you can be proud of!!

What you don't hear in the media

if you were to ask ten people on the street if mankind was causing global warming, at least eight out of ten would say yes. After all, Al Gore’s Inconvenient Truth allegedly provides incontrovertible evidence that this is the case. Both presidential candidates are committed to passing economically devastating legislation that will do little to nothing to stop global warming. Contrary to what is heard in the media, however, there is overwhelming evidence that the warming we are experiencing is natural, with maybe a small amount contributed by man’s activities. Nor is there any scientific consensus. 31,000 scientists have signed a petition stating there is "no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide is causing...catastrophic" warming. The debate is still raging within the scientific community. In this DVD, Sovereignty International has put together interviews of respected climate scientists and biologists from numerous sources who explain, step by step, why Al Gore and the global warming alarmists are incorrect. In some cases, blatantly so.

turning off your lights can't "fight global warming" because there is no such thing as global warming. It is a theory and not scientific fact. Al Gore is an @ss and is only out for fame and money. We don't have that much power over the environment. Back in the mid 1970s the scientists were totally sure that we were headed for an ice age - "Global Cooling" problem. It was nothing, obviously!

Personally, it is now 7:22pm and I plan on turning more lights on out of protest for the naive people that think this is important!

BTW, listen to your mother. If you want to sit in your dark bedroom, more power to ya!

You poor misguided soul! Don't you turn your lights out at night when you go to bed? That should be enough. This "turn your lights out hour" crap is just that...crap! I kept my lights on as usual and don't feel the least bit guilty about it. For you and others to have the audacity to think that by simply turning off a light bulb is somehow going to save the planet from infinite doom is preposterous! The earth was here millions of years before us and has undergone numerous forms of transformation within that time and it will continue do so after we are all dead and gone. So flick the switch on or off...it won't make the least bit of difference!

P.S. - You're mother is smarter than you think...follow her lead!

Your mother is right and you have been brainwashed into thinking "Man made" global warming is real when the opposite is true. You are one of the many that are like the moth drawn to the flame and will end up being burnt in the end. Go ahead and give your hard earned cash to these scam artists for a fool and his money are soon parted.
