Can You Spare An Hour?

Have you heard about Earth Hour 2008? This Saturday, March 29th, you can make a global statement by turning off all your lights from 8-9pm. It started last year in Sydney and apparently caught on, so this year it has become a world wide event.
It is about simple changes that will collectively make a difference – from businesses turning off their lights when their offices are empty, to households turning off appliances rather than leaving them on standby.
It seems easy enough. We’re moving this weekend so we will see how packing in the dark goes *snort*. Or maybe we will just sit here by candlelight and sip some wine out of Dixie cups or something. If you are young and fabulous and will be primping to go out on the town on Saturday, I hear young folks still do that, plan to put your makeup on before 8pm. Sign up today so you can help make a statement as well.

It’s a good cause, and word definitely needs to get out about this. Personally speaking, most of my lights are generally out around that hour anyway, but I’m sure that there are many others who could make this change, and help make a difference for the planet.
The white house better be dark…
Peter, somehow I don’t see that happening.
Wow. That’s a catchy title. It immediately caught our eye! YES!!!! FOR SURE, we can spare an hour. Great idea. I will feature it on our blog ‘We Are One World Healing’ also.
Incidentally, that blog is all about: 1 hour for world healing, each month all participants send unconditional love/healing energy to humanity, nature and Earth. Very powerful experiences. Free to register and to participate is bliss. You might like to check it out.
