It is done by turning off your lights and all other unnecessary electrical appliances for one hour. Sydney has done it last year, and it is aimed to happen around the world this year..Earth Hour 2007 has been a target for criticism.. some say that the energy save was negligible. some questioned its practicality (read it here)I would say that by dimming off all the lights for one hour does little or negligible reduce in electricity consumption.. but it is itself is a campaign for public awareness to reduce electricity usage in your daily life.Some questions for you all:Do you off your lights/fans/air-conditioner/heater when you are not in the room?Do you shut down your computer, when you are not using it?Do you shut off your electrical appliances without leaving them in stand-by mode for the rest of the day?Di...
