Is this a picture of an alarmist somehow saving polar bear cubs by writing using the light of a computer monitor?
WWF's Earth Hour has already been translated into nearly 30 languages, and will literally be happening from pole to pole – including our very own ice team on the Arctic Ocean and the UK Operations team here in London.

Given that the Operations Room runs around the clock, this opposes certain logistical issues, but we’re still doing our bit. Are you?
CA Academy of Science AGW display apparently not very popular « Watts Up With That?
For the most part these displays were ignored, except for a few casual observers seeking refuge from the long lines at the real science displays. This lack of interest and participation seems to reflect the recent Gallup Polls indicating people are not really concerned about global warming, or ocean warming either. It could be our children have caught on to the scam, or they have reached global warming overload for the school lessons, and want some real science for change of pace.
AP Continues to Perpetuate US-Kyoto 1997 Mythology | NewsBusters.org
Finally, the mythology in previous AP articles on the topic is that Bush "rejected" Kyoto, when the fact is that it was never submitted it to the Senate in the first place.

The difference between 2009 and 1997 is not, as Capiello implies, that Congress is controlled by Democrats. It's that there is a Congress that happens to be controlled by Democrats may be, as Capiello claims without qualification and without providing clear evidence, "moving to embrace mandatory limits on greenhouse gases."

One thing that hasn't changed is AP's dogged and disgraceful insistence on misleading readers about what really happened with Kyoto.
