CFP: “As a symbol of California’s commitment to the environment and combatting climate change, the Department of General Services (DGS), in cooperation with the Joint Rules Committee, will turn off the State Capitol dome lights for one hour (from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.) this Saturday, March 25th, to observe Earth Hour.”
We’re going to turn the dome lights off, but leave all the internal ones on. That makes sense…
They’re too busy saving the world while the state burns.
And Jerry Brown “is mulling ways to prevent the end of the world,” according to the SacBee. “I think the world is getting closer to the brink of destruction,” Gov. Brown said. “It’s bad. And there is goofing off on a bunch of sidebar activity, in my opinion. What we have to do is everything possible to at least start talking.”
While California drowns in debt, its public schools are failing and ranked with some of the lowest reading scores in the country, criminals are being let out of prison and jails and crime is spiking, water is cut off to our farmers*, illegal aliens and “refugees” are arriving in droves as Democrats are trying to pass legislation making California a sanctuary state, one dam we know of may blow apart (who knows about the rest…),bridges are falling down, highways are crumbling, and Democrats flout federal election laws by allowing millions of illegals to vote, Jerry and his corrupt Democrats in the statehouse (and feckless Reps) are introducing bills at lightning speed to add regulations, massive tax increases, more gun control, restricting more freedoms, all while prattling on about climate change and nuclear war.
Symbolic gesture = meaningless gesture. Wake me up when you do something that matters.
I think they should turn off all the street lights for an hour.
Not to worry. We left all the lights on last night. Left a couple windows open as well. Furnace never stopped.
Consumption, the never ending need for growth and the insatiable appetite for moar debt. We’ll agree on that part, although we won’t agree that climate change causes the aforementioned and any elected official won’t agree the premise of the entire system is the root cause. It’s high time to start blaming the political atmosphere on climate change. Call it the new stratosphere or new troposphere: whatever scientist agree on. These asswads can’t be this stupid naturally, it has to be (man made) climate change.
It’s super bright in the living room. Better go get my sunglasses.
Thanks for the reminder about Earth Hour. I always turn all my inside and outside lights on for that.
I’m willing to bet they are using more power turning those lights off and then back on with only an hour in between. I highly doubt they are simple filament bulbs.
The two 1000 watt high pressure sodium lamps I hung in my living room are almost too bright, even when I’m wearing sunglasses. My plants seem to like all the light, so that’s a pluss.
…plus.
“Joint Rules Committee” -since it’s CA, I would assume that this something to do with the new cannabis law.
Lights are for amateurs. Take your mains, disconnect them before your meter so you don’t have to pay for it, and rig them up to a big heater coil. It’s a good time watching a hole burn in your front yard.
Jerry moonbeam brown is by far the stupidest asshole on the planet. On the jimmy carter scale of 1-10 he’s about a 15! I wouldn’t be surprised if the DNC doesn’t run HIM as their candidate in 2020!
It’s never a dull moment here in cracklifornia. I’m turning all my utilities on for the hour. That’ll learn em.
If California turned all the lights off for 1 hour can you imagine the mayhem, looting and murder by all the illegal immigrants and gang bangers?
The funeral business would have a sharp uptick, but the increase of unwed mothers would make up the difference..
This motherfu*ker is going to do it. He wants to run in 2020.
Trump will beat his narrow ass worse than he did Hillary.
I’ve got a now dried parted coconut tree that was
destroyed by beetles my POS gooberment will do nothing
about. I’ll light a big phucking bonfire and charcoal bbq that
nice evening to celebrate.
Hey Sacramento, how about turning your lights off forever??
So, what’s the plan for the Oroville Dam that sends water to So. California? Do I give fuck? Nope. Learn to live with less.

I’ve long thought Jerry Brown was a drug addict. No one could be that stupid on their own, but what does that say for the idiots who vote for him?
jerry is a FOOL! I wish he’d just die already. But what’s coming next is WORSE. calif is a dying state that will never recover because there is no one here that can save it from itself.
