Title: Earth Hour
Post by: anthrobabe on March 29, 2008, 02:44:27 PM
lights off for one hour from 8pm to 9pm-- in your local time zone.
if you 'missed' it then just 'do it' with me at 8pm my time-- CST United States.

Thank you for this link. I heard about this last night on the news. I think I'll do it. It would be a nice night to light up the old fireplace. (Is that allowed?)

you must read the list of 'what to do we have lots of ideas' part, just scroll. Lighting a wood fire will be nice I think-- for most of human history that is what we did when it got dark-- good time to be in touch with family and our past.

I will go out and look at the stars tonight

it won't reverse global warming-but every little bit helps-kilowatt by kilowatt. for example when I come into work every day I turn half the lights off-- we have a million lights in dispatch and even with only half on we have plenty.

Wood fire, maybe some wine, to toast Mama earth.
