Aku kira ramai yang telah berikrar untuk turut serta dalam kempen Earth Hour. Ramai juga yang aku lihat gigih mempromosinya di blog mereka. Malah aku agak lagi ramai yang menyertainya hanya kerana kiasu - tidak mahu ketinggalan dari hype semasa ini.
Aku tidak mahu bercerita tentang sejarah 60 Earth Hour ini kerana tentu ramai yang telah tahu asal usulnya.
Juga, dengan tajuk di atas tidak semestinya aku akan boikot sekerasnya kempen ini. Entry ini hanyalah pandangan dari sudut berbeza. Setiap satu perancangan manusia itu tidak semestinya kita patut ikut melulu bukan? kita bebas untuk menyelidiki dan keluarkan pendapat pro atau cons tentang sesuatu isu itu.
Jika ada yang tidak bersetuju dengan Anti Earth Hour ini aku hargai dan tidak akan berkeras untuk mempertahankannya kerana itu hak semua. Mungkin ramai yang akan berkata “Kalau tak suka baik diam”. Well, Aku juga ada hak untuk menyuarakan pendapat dan pandangan aku. Inilah fungsi blog di mana setiap orang bebas berkongsi dan meluahkan rasa mereka.
Aku cintakan bumi, malah theme blog ini aku pilih green kerana sukakan alam kehijauan. Apa yang aku kurang gemar adalah hype melampau yang tiada basis kukuh dan hanya menguntungkan golongan tertentu.
Jika memadamkan lampu untuk menjimatkan tenaga memang telah lama aku praktikkan hari-hari, malah di tempatku memang kerap berlaku black out. Jadi aku tidak perlukan hype simbolik ini kerana semua ini telah jadi rutin kami.
Tahukah anda yang global warming yang diwar-warkan hanyalah mitos, propaganda dan konspirasi digunakan pihak tertentu, salah seorangnya bekas naib presiden amerika, Al Gore untuk kepentingan kroni Illuminati dan Freemason mereka?
Mitos Global Warming
Dalam artikel ulasan dokumentari “The Great Global Warming Swindle” oleh S. Fred Singer, seorang Atmospheric Physicist menyatakan:
Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth has met its match: a devastating documentary recently shown on British television, which has now been viewed by millions of people on the Internet. Despite its flamboyant title, The Great Global Warming Swindle is based on sound science and interviews with real climate scientists, including me. An Inconvenient Truth, on the other hand, is mostly an emotional presentation from a single politician.
The scientific arguments presented in The Great Global Warming Swindle can be stated quite briefly:
1. There is no proof that the current warming is caused by the rise of greenhouse gases from human activity. Ice core records from the past 650,000 years show that temperature increases have preceded—not resulted from—increases in CO2 by hundreds of years, suggesting that the warming of the oceans is an important source of the rise in atmospheric CO2. As the dominant greenhouse gas, water vapour is far, far more important than CO2. Dire predictions of future warming are based almost entirely on computer climate models, yet these models do not accurately understand the role or water vapor—and, in any case, water vapor is not within our control. Plus, computer models cannot account for the observed cooling of much of the past century (1940–75), nor for the observed patterns of warming—what we call the “fingerprints.” For example, the Antarctic is cooling while models predict warming. And where the models call for the middle atmosphere to warm faster than the surface, the observations show the exact opposite.
The best evidence supporting natural causes of temperature fluctuations are the changes in cloudiness, which correspond strongly with regular variations in solar activity. The current warming is likely part of a natural cycle of climate warming and cooling that’s been traced back almost a million years. It accounts for the Medieval Warm Period around 1100 A.D., when the Vikings settled Greenland and grew crops, and the Little Ice Age, from about 1400 to 1850 A.D., which brought severe winters and cold summers to Europe, with failed harvests, starvation, disease, and general misery. Attempts have been made to claim that the current warming is “unusual” using spurious analysis of tree rings and other proxy data. Advocates have tried to deny the existence of these historic climate swings and claim that the current warming is "unusual" by using spurious analysis of tree rings and other proxy data, resulting in the famous “hockey–stick” temperature graph. The hockey-stick graph has now been thoroughly discredited.
2. If the cause of warming is mostly natural, then there is little we can do about it. We cannot control the inconstant sun, the likely origin of most climate variability. None of the schemes for greenhouse gas reduction currently bandied about will do any good; they are all irrelevant, useless, and wildly expensive:
• Control of CO2 emissions, whether by rationing or elaborate cap–and–trade schemes
• Uneconomic “alternative” energy, such as ethanol and the impractical “hydrogen economy”
• Massive installations of wind turbines and solar collectors
• Proposed projects for the sequestration of CO2 from smokestacks or even from the atmosphere
Ironically, even if CO2 were responsible for the observed warming trend, all these schemes would be ineffective—unless we could persuade every nation, including China, to cut fuel use by 80 percent!
3. Finally, no one can show that a warmer climate would produce negative impacts overall. The much–feared rise in sea levels does not seem to depend on short–term temperature changes, as the rate of sea–level increases has been steady since the last ice age, 10,000 years ago. In fact, many economists argue that the opposite is more likely—that warming produces a net benefit, that it increases incomes and standards of living. Why do we assume that the present climate is the optimum? Surely, the chance of this must be vanishingly small, and the economic history of past climate warmings bear this out.
But the main message of The Great Global Warming Swindle is much broader. Why should we devote our scarce resources to what is essentially a non–problem, and ignore the real problems the world faces: hunger, disease, denial of human rights—not to mention the threats of terrorism and nuclear wars? And are we really prepared to deal with natural disasters; pandemics that can wipe out most of the human race, or even the impact of an asteroid, such as the one that wiped out the dinosaurs? Yet politicians and the elites throughout much of the world prefer to squander our limited resources to fashionable issues, rather than concentrate on real problems. Just consider the scary predictions emanating from supposedly responsible world figures: the chief scientist of Great Britain tells us that unless we insulate our houses and use more efficient light bulbs, the Antarctic will be the only habitable continent by 2100, with a few surviving breeding couples propagating the human race. Seriously!
I imagine that in the not–too–distant future all the hype will have died down, particularly if the climate should decide to cool—as it did during much of the past century; we should take note here that it has not warmed since 1998. Future generations will look back on the current madness and wonder what it was all about. They will have movies like An Inconvenient Truth and documentaries like The Great Global Warming Swindle to remind them.

Pembakaran Lilin
Tentu ramai yang berimaginasi dan merancang mahu menyalakan lilin ketika event Earth Hour ini nanti. Langkah ini tidak efisyen.
Ya lilin sangat romantik, sangat syahdu dalam kegelapan tapi sedarkah kalian bahawa kebanyakan lilin diperbuat dari hydrocarbon.Pembakaran lilin menyumbang greenhouse gas dan carbon dioxide berlebihan melebihi dari penggunaan lampu elektrik yang ditutup itu sendiri.
Bayangkan ribuan, malah jutaan manusia menyalakan lilin ketika beramai-ramai merayakan simbolik ini, berapa banyak gas yang mencemarkan telah dirembes keluar walhal tujuan asal mahu menyelamatkan bumi.
Fikirkan...

seriously...
kalau hendak tutup lampu sahaja, adakah ia mampu mengurangkan kadar pembaziran secara global?
aku baru berkira2 mahu pergi ke tempat generator elektrik universiti aku dan tutup sumber bekalan elektrik di situ.
baru gempak habis2an, kan?
hahaha....
(sekadar gurauan kasar)

earth hour is good.. n tak pulak kempen ni suruh pasang lilin..
just bergelap 1 jam.. GELAP..
global warming adalah propaganda ??? ermmm... dunia makin sejuk ke u skrg ni????
March 25, 2009 at 6:31 PM
anyway sesiapa nak sambut just sambut..tutup je lampu x sape larang,ia hanya simbolik anyway. personally i tak cakap jangan. tapi just pesanan for some yg terfikir nak bakar lilin terutama yang berkumpul ramai2 kat luar tu mcm yg i tgk dlm pics campaign tu thn2 lepas.

jannah:byk sebenarnya kita perlu ketahui. begitu banyak polution yg big nations and big corporations lakukan, juga banyak kesengsaraan manusia yg dilakukan oleh certain kelompok powerful people kita pandang sebelah mata je.takde sape nak ask them to stop. Diorang ni la semua yg mendapat untung dari segala ni semua. at the same time buat kita lupa,diam&lega lps join kempen2 mcm ni

kau sudah buat research sendiri? global warming bukan sahaja disebabkan penambahan CO2 & kekurangan oxygen, tapi penipisan lapisan ozon, yang disebabkan greenhouse effect.. aku pasti kau tahu semua basic nih bukan?
and aku tak paham, kau kata penambahan CO2 yg menyebabkan global warming itu mitos, abistuh apa masalah klu psg lilin byk2?
kurang peka nampak nya?

pada pelawat semua yang ada baca dan faham, tahniah juga
and to those yang dok perleceh ja do what ever you want ...
INGAT !!! jika kita berbuat baik MEMANG akan ada yang menentang, itu adalah perkara biasa, nabi junjungan Muhammad s.a.w juga mendapat tentangan semasa berdakwah menyampaikan ajaran Islam.
tentangan itu perkara biasa cuma kita ambil, olah dan urus kembali .... insyaallah ada cara selesaikannya ...
