Earth Hour – Switch Off All Your Lights This Saturday 8:30 – 9:30PM

27 Mar

It’s a simple idea with a potentially huge message, this Saturday – 28th March 2009, everyone on planet Earth is being asked to cast a vote for mother Earth by switching off every light in their house.

Switch Off Your Lights!

Switch Off Your Lights!

Here is a snippet from the Earth Hour website;

This year, Earth Hour has been transformed into the world’s first global election, between Earth and global warming.

For the first time in history, people of all ages, nationalities, race and background have the opportunity to use their light switch as their vote – Switching off your lights is a vote for Earth, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming. WWF are urging the world to VOTE EARTH and reach the target of 1 billion votes, which will be presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009.

This meeting will determine official government policies to take action against global warming, which will replace the Kyoto Protocol. It is the chance for the people of the world to make their voice heard.

    We’ve done this the last two years – a great night of candles, reading stories by candlelight with the kiddies and thinking about the issues.

    I know some say what’s the point of one hour, but I think it is still a great initiative to educate for change, by making it an activity of collective fun world-wide.
