Did you participate in Earth Hour last year? I did, and the vibes felt great. And now we'll have another opportunity this Saturday.
On March 27 at 8:30 pm local time, individuals, businesses, and municipalities around the world will turn off their lights for one hour -- Earth Hour -- in a show of concern for climate change and commitment to finding solutions.
Last year, according to the Earth Hour website, "hundreds of millions of people took part in the third Earth Hour. Over 4000 cities in 88 countries officially switched off to pledge their support for the planet, making Earth Hour 2009 the world's largest global climate change initiative."
Even some major international icons and landmarks around the world have participated in Earth Hour in past years, including the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Sydney Opera House, and the Acropolis and Parthenon in Athens.
Let's make Earth Hour 2010 even bigger.
To find out more, and to sign up, go to www.earthhour.org.
If enough people, businesses, and cities participate, imagine how dramatic it will look from space as darkness rolls through the earth's time zones one by one!
