Earth Hour - March 29, 2008 - 8pm (YOUR Local Time)

On Saturday, March 29 at 8pm millions of people around the world will turn off their lights for one hour - Earth Hour - symbolizing the need to take action on climate change. Join the Earth Hour movement by turning off lights between 8:00 – 9:00 pm on March 29, 2008. Climate change is the biggest environmental threat to our planet and the number one concern for Canadians. Participating in Earth Hour is a simple way to take stand in the cause for a better, greener earth.

Personally, I don’t think 1-hour on a Saturday Night once a year is going to make ANY difference at all, and I will NOT Be turning off my electricity during this time. However, I am always for having a greener earth and saving the environment, and recycling, and all of that .. and always personally trying to reduce power consumption if I can. And, not only because there’s a motivation to reducing my Hydro bill each month … It just takes two seconds to turn off a computer each night. And, for the 10 minutes it takes to reboot .. I just go make a fresh pot of coffee in the morning!
