Earth Day is energy day everyday day! If you want to save money at least encourage it, it could help you pay your bills! I'm already enjoying my reusable 99 cent bag from WalGreen's and I take it to grocery stores whenever I need to! The more light, stereos, nintendo, computers, cell phones and tv you use the more it adds up!!!!

Forgot to say good one Sydney for a great initiative and to get so many other cities involved for only the second year of Earth Hour. Hopefully more cities will join us next year.

I have heard that the technology is available for making cars more green friendly, but money is needed to turn that into a reality. Someone who won't be making a buck out of green energy must be behind this stalling, otherwise if money were to be made it would be full steam ahead.

One thing I've thought about, with oil prices so high, are we missing a really good opportunity to make the case for renewable fuels and energy sources that cause far less pollution? What do other people think? One thing I saw on the news was that truckers could use vegetable oil. Vegetable oil is completely renewable, it's cheaper than crude oil - a lot cheaper and existing trucks can use it by making only a minor adjustment to their engines. It seems to me a win-win solution for both truckers who are being stuck with fuel prices that are putting them out of business and the environment because it uses recycled vegetable oil and because it's organic fuel, the emmissions are environmental friendly as well. They don't turn into permanent smog. But what is stopping the transition? The government because they can't charge taxes! We need cleaner and renewable fuels. We have one part of the solution, not the best solution but a step in the right direction. Is there something I'm missing, it would seem to me it solves two problems at once?

Now I understand why ice age happened.
