Only because we’re shut down

What a load of bullshit

Oh for God sake who cares!

Are we still doing that? Thought the 'greatest challenge of our lifetime' was bumped down the list a few pegs?

No we didn’t

I think you’ll find it was voluntary

Did they? With all this covid19 I didn’t realise it was Earth Hour 2020.

going down the gurgler at 100mph. Stopped watching a month ago when they started with the leftie bimbos

Actually we went to bed early, other things on our minds...

The other 99.99% kept on doing their normal stuff while reflecting & smiling on the antics of a bunch of folk sitting in darkness who probably & ironically attend 'white night' in their local city later in the year.

Redemption accomplished, lets put the xmas lights out there for another 4 weeks

Climate change is soo last decade..

Is that still an event?

What a load of bullshit.

I switched everything on

shit forgot what a shame...greta spank me

And millions didn't. :)

Did the brainwashed climate kids turn off their earth destroying phones and video games?

ooooo... ' thousands '

Even more kept them on

Earth hour is now at 3am

Yeah Right Sure They Did 😂😂😂😂

Don't worry, for 3 weeks in May/June, Sydney will light up a whole load of buildings every night for the Vivid light festival .... that will make up for it.

Yeah sorry guys I forgot to turn my netflix, sound system, tv, lights, spot lights outside, left all my shed lights on etc you get the picture now fuck off

Bahahahahahahaha. You’ve got to be kidding.

Earth hour is a loud of rubbish, people are dying with this coronavirus! And all you greenies are worried about, that people turn their lights off.

BREAKING NEWS!!!! Thousands of psychopaths turn lights out for earth hour

Lol, all the eco loons sat in the dark worrying about a 1° temperature rise in a hundred years while a global pandemic is rampant and killing thousands right now

Nobody participated in earth hour, the lights off is the economic vandalism that is being inflicted on this country by some know it all Drs to save the lives of 50 people who would have likely died in a year anyway

'Quarantini hour' could become one of our great new traditionsQuestions of etiquette are flying thick and fast (albeit around our own heads). Like: 'When is it too early to drink,' and 'Is it drinking alone if I phone a friend?' Drinking, stress & physical isolation is not a great mix. Please don’t encourage irresponsible service of alcohol in homes Careful: we’ll soon be preached to about how to responsibly quarantine. The morally outraged know no boundaries. I have left my watch on Kiribati time, 6.00pm comes to me an hour early In melbourne . Salute 🍷

Australian authorities need to keep 'an eye on China's games' | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Paul Murray says although talking about China during this crisis is “a rabbit hole that we don’t need to go down” there are a few new developments that need attention.\n\nReports have emerged about a Chinese-owned property company shipping more than 80 tonnes of medical equipment including 'millions of facemasks' from Australia to China.\n\nMr Murray said if this was to happen now it “would be a criminal offence” because these products are “meant to help us here”.\n\nIt seems for these Australian businesses “their first loyalty isn’t to their fellow citizens here but it’s to the mother country”.\n\nMr Murray said it is important to be wary of ‘predatory’ corporate acquisitions given Australian companies “are worth less than they were going into” coronavirus which makes them “absolute rife targets for takeover”. \n\nThe absolute bad news of the coronavirus is ' keeping an eye on the games of China,' he said.\n\nImage: AP we all know about China's government, but we should not dissuade our fellow neighbours that quickly... if your listening to a child US government under trump that is... You are so far out of date it is ridiculous Never mind Russia being a threat to the world, China has taken it to the next level as they have shown a total disregard to human lives out there. They’re arrogance is absolutely suffocating
