Id be more interested to know exactly how much electricity was saved.
Where I live in Australia, I looked on the power demand graphs for all
the States during the Earth Hour and coudnt even see a blip in reduced
consumption.

Does anyone else anywhere have an accurate , ie measured amount of
power reduction during earth Hour.
