Saturday is Earth Hour
March 28th, 2008 by BellhopIn less than two days, people all over the world from different cities will be celebrating an event that will fuel awareness on climate change and prove what human beings are capable of to take care of the Earth and make a difference in the fight against global warming.
On March 29, 2008, from 8 to 9 in the evening, lights will be turned off for the whole 60 minutes, thereby, the Earth Hour. Each individual can do a lot to contribute. Aside from doing a ‘lights-out’, invite family, friends and the whole community to do the same.
The first ever Earth Hour was initiated by the city of Sydney in Australia last March 31, 2007. By turning off its lights for one hour, Sydney has made a powerful statement leading to a 10.2% energy reduction across the city. Their stand against global warming has been noticed all over the world so now in 2008, more than 24 global cities will be participating too.
Are you ready to do your share?
No other city is as vibrant and alive as

Hi, this article is very timely; I have no idea why so many people still have so much disregard for the environment, and that people who do care are sometimes branded as freaks. The Earth Hour is a highly - publicized event that would make caring for the environment or at least being aware about the importance of our earth, “cool” and mainstream.
Thank you for contributing to the awareness of the Earth Hour!

This is nice, however i am concerned about crime. if we turn out our lights, maybe when we turned them on again tadaah no more stuff in the house haha.
but im happy bec. people are doing something to help save the environment. i wish we would do something about the oil crisis and the food shortage as well.
