Top tourist sites in coal-reliant Poland are turning off their lights at 8:30 p.m. in solidarity with global Earth Hour action calling for better climate protections.
In Poland's capital city, Warsaw, the spired landmark Palace of Culture and Science was turning off its night illumination, along with some churches and Old Town walls, all popular tourist venues.
In the southern renaissance city of Krakow, which sees millions of tourists from around the world each year, the central vaulted Cloth Market and the 14th-century red brick St. Mary's Basilica al turned off its lights.
The Earth Hour gesture calls for greater awareness and more sparing use of resources, especially fossil fuels that produce carbon gasses and lead to global warming.

Everyone wants to be Venezuela?
*Nor should they use anything plastic, or otherwise synthetic, no make up, no hairstyling, never buy anything in a box, avoid walking on pavement (since it takes fossil fuels to run the equipment that made and poured the concrete, avoid all vehicles, run from blacktopped roads, never use any man-made piece of equipment.
*Best hold you nose and run naked into the uninhabited forest, desert, jungle, mountain huddle up and quiver until the cougar or bear invites you to dinner ...

Anyone turning their lights on?
I just turned on all my lights.
/resist :)
Should leave power completely off for 24 hours and call it “Electric Power Appreciation Day”.
Dangit!
I have a bunch of styrofoam I’ve been saving for the burn barrel and now it’s friggin raining and sleeting out
Yawn. Must be time to go to bed already.
Switching off lights voluntarily is altogether different from having the power rationed to maybe one or two hours a day, or even a week, and paying exorbitant fees for even that short window of time.
Dear leftists, you don’t need our permission, proceed without us, sooner or later we will learn by YOUR example.
I’m sure it’ll make some feel really good about what they’re doing for the earth, being such an enormous sacrifice.
This has to be the biggest virtue signaling event all year!
It doesn’t help. Just a feel good idiotic stupid thing to proclaim one’s moral superiority.
I wish I had Christmas lights up so I could keep them on all nite to celebrate.
Venezuela waaaay ahead....
The econazis want us all shivering in the dark.
I reckon so!
That’s a reminder for me to turn on every light in the house for an hour.
Even the lights we never use.
Might go out back and burn some tires, too.
Everybody was North Korea for an hour.
Why not a day, hot shots?
