#EarthHour #EarthHour2022
భూ గోళం మండిపోతోంది. భానుడి భగభగలతో ధరణి దద్దరిల్లిపోతోంది. భూ దేవి అగ్గి బరాట అవుతోంది. ఆధునికత కొంప ముంచుతోంది. ఏసీలు, ఫ్రిడ్జ్ లు, కార్లు ఇతర ఎలక్ట్రానిక్ గూడ్స్ నుంచి వెలువడే క్లోరో , ఫ్లోరో, కార్బన్స్ ఓజోన్ పొరను క్రమంగా నాశనం చేస్తున్నాయి.

ఫలితం సూర్య కిరణాలు నేరుగా నేలపై పడటంతో.. భూ తాపం అంతకంతకు పెరుగుతోంది. కారణమేదైనా పర్యావరణమే ప్రమాదంలో పడింది. గ్లోబల్ వార్మింగ్ జీవరాశి ఉనికికే విలన్ గా మారింది. అందుకే భూమిని కాపాడుకుందాం. పర్యావరణాన్ని రక్షించుకుందాం అంటూ పర్యావరణవేత్తలు ఎర్త్ అవర్ కు శ్రీకారం చుట్టారు.
మార్చి 29 2007లో ఆస్ట్రేలియాలో ప్రారంభమైన ఎర్త్ అవర్ ప్రపంచదేశాలకు విస్తరించింది. ఒక్క దేశంలో ప్రారంభమైన మంచిపని ఇప్పుడు 7000 నగరాలు, పట్టణాల్లో విస్తరించింది. డబ్లుడబ్లుఎఫ్ ఆధ్వర్యంలో ప్రపంచవ్యాప్తంగా

Never thought the pandemic will bring up any questions for energy engineers. But when #energy minister of a state raises concerns, they should not be brushed aside. 1/n #IndiaFightsCorona
Every evening as all of us switch on lights, total load on the grid increases by about 17GW over about an hour. This is a jump of ~15% compared to average load. 2/n #IndiaFightsCorona
Thus, it would be realistic to expect a sudden drop of up to 10% on evening of 5th as we follow the words of @narendramodi. The rate of change will be much more than usual 3/n #IndiaFightsCorona

Only PM Modi’s 9 minute lights switch off is considered a problem.
The #EarthHour (lights switch-off) was going on for years, everyone supported it. No questions about grid stability then.
Obstructionism at its very best.
Let me show you the evidence with proof: reminded of the phrase in the song:
“Ham karein to saala character dheela hain “

Narrative chalana koi insey seekho.
#EarthHour2020 will save India BUT 9 minutes #LightsOff will create severe disaster and disruption and aliens will come from Mars and jump up and down ... LL being spread day and night.
Kya Ghanghor C********pa hain bhai!!

1/n A little thread on the impact of #9baje9minute on the Indian #Electricity #grid @PosocoIndia @MinOfPower

From @PosocoIndia o data #India's #power #demand at 19:00 hours in the last three #Sundays:

29 March: 110632 Gigawatts (GW)
22 March: 125000 GW
15 March: 144258 GW
2/n #Power #demand at 19:00 hours on similar Sundays last year:
31 March 2019: 149361
07 April 2019: 150735

#lockdown has reduced demand by 35-40 GW primarily as a result of the partial closure of industries and commercial establishments
3/n In 2019, #residential #demand was about 25% of total demand but it likely to be 33% of the total demand today. So, a sudden change in #residential #demand is likely to have a bigger impact.

Follow this small thread @BilldeBlasio: between 2011 and 2018 @Marriott opened 11 hotels and invested U$ 400 million in Brazil. Now, after all this investment, a fascist, anti-climate, rascistas and misogynist government started to rule the country.
turismoetc.com.br/viagem/marriot…
So what a huge company should do to preserve its investments in that scenario? @Marriott had no doubt whatsoever: decided to host an event honoring this fascist president at one of its best hotels in NY @MHMarquisNYC. The event will happen on May 14th, at evening.
The irony is that all @MarriottIntl took part of #EarthHour to raise awareness for energy consumption and effects on the environment. But @jairbolsonaro & his team don't "believe" in Global Warming and chose a path of environmental annihilation to Brazil.
