Close the Light!

March 26, 2008 by Dianne Que

In 2007, 2.2 Million Aussies in Sydney, Australia decided to turn out the lights for one hour…AT THE SAME TIME. The amount of energy they saved was equivalent to taking 48,000 cars off the road. Wowzers. This year, on Saturday, March 29 from 8-9PM, “Earth Hour” goes global! From SF to Manila to… Christchurch (Yup, that’s a real city. In New Zealand.), millions of folks - including businesses and corporations - will be turning off their lights in a worldwide movement to cool the warming globe.


Saturday, March 29, 8-9PM.
Let’s Go Dark.

    Great post, Dianne.

    My apartment lights were definitely out last Saturday, in the name of Mother Earth.
    Also, in the name of Being Out of Town.

    That’s why you wanted to turn the lights off at Kris’ house.
