Earth Hour


Two years ago, Sydney, Australia held its first Earth Hour in a stand against climate change. Everybody who signed up agreed to switch off all their lights for one hour on a set date and time. Even Sydney’s Harbour Bridge and Opera House got involved and switched off.

This year it’s going global and towns, cities, businesses and households alike are signing up. Im trying to do my part, at least spreading this event.

In Central America, the Earth Hour will be until tomorrow, but thinking globally, there will be a lot of cities where in fact due to hour differences will be reaching March 28 probably soon (My australian and asian readers will be in the first row ^^).

For me, Im planning to turn off the lights in my house tomorrow at 20.30 for 60 mins.

I'll be doing it, it's easy to turn off lights. I don't like wasting energy any more than necessary anyways

I turned off my lights when Earth Hour started here, but then I quickly realized that I wouldn't be able to finish any work in the dark :/
