MAGICAL THINKING
Envirofraud Cate Blanchett dodges Earth Hour:
The Sydney Theatre Company co-artistic director Cate Blanchett will do her bit on Saturday, with the performance of The Year Of Magical Thinking moved forward to 6.30pm. The 90-minute show, directed by Blanchett and starring former STC director Robyn Nevin, will be followed by a “candlelight” supper party at the wharf to celebrate the hour of environmental awareness.
As Local Oaf previously observed:
So all you have to do to be part of Earth Hour is to use all the energy earlier on, allowing you to be virtuous during the specified hour.
On that basis, I’ve been having my own personal Earth Hour every day for decades between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m.!
UPDATE. Earth Hour defined: “Everyone turns their lights off for an hour and then turns them back on to see what was taken.”
