Let's Turn Off the Light! (?)

I've just received an e-mail urging people to turn off their lights on February 1, between 7.55 - 8.00 pm. I wonder how does the time difference work, but considering it was originally sent from Spain, I guess we should all start calculating. The reason for this action is the UN climate report that will be released on February 2 (not the 1st, as they say) in Paris. I don't know whether there's anyone out there who actually does this sort of things, but I wouldn't rush into saying that it would be useless. 5 minute worth of saved energy all over the world, but especially in the big cities... I don't see how that could harm us. I'm anxiously waiting for the report, as well.

About the release of the UN report:

An Inconvenient Truth
A Documentary about Global Warming

If we have time to watch movies like "Borat", "Idiocracy" and... I don't know what else and it's not important, anyway, then it is sure we can save 1 hour and 40 minutes for this one.
Global warming represents a reality that many of the world's leaders are trying to cover. Although the data is brought to us by a politician, Al Gore, there is no denying the authenticity of the charts and images he presents. There are a few short "melodramatic" scenes and some more or less direct attacks against the Bush administration (well-deserved, in my opinion) which the movie could have done without, but these do not diminish the power of all the information it shares. From the disappearance of the famous Kilimanjaro snows to the Kyoto Protocol, "An Inconvenient Truth" gives many explanations, answers a lot of questions and reinforces what we already know.
A vey informative movie, one that will or at least should have us thinking for a long time after the credits roll. And then we might want to act on it. I hope the trailer will be more convincing and will have you see "An Inconvenient Truth".
