Earth Hour Is Tonight!

“Earth Hour shows that, together, our small actions can make a difference in the fight against climate change. By turning out the lights for one hour on March 29, individuals, businesses and communities across the world will demonstrate our collective concern about climate change and signal our willingness to do something about it.” EarthHour
Google’s page is black today “as a gesture to raise awareness of a worldwide energy conservation effort called Earth Hour.”
Honolulu, Hawai`i is signed up to participate, as are many companies. It’s a symbol and celebration of our commitment to each do our part in reducing the carbon footprint on a daily basis. Save yourself some money while saving the planet. My family will participate at home and I’ll be at a friend’s party turning off the lights there! It’ll be fun!
Please join me and millions of others around the world in turning off the lights tonight between 8:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m.

Wow! That must have been awesome! I didn’t have a view of any other houses that night so I couldn’t really see if there was any difference in the city (and I use that term loosely) lights.
