Earth Hour Tonight

Just a reminder that you are invited to turn your lights out tonight from 8:30 to 9:30 to mark Earth Hour.
Personally, I will be out at dinner. I'll probably be walking home during Earth Hour and I'll be curious to see how many people actually turn off their lights.
If you think it's a hollow gesture, consider images like the one at left.
What a stark reminder of the location of the world's energy hogs.
And when was the last time you spent an hour in the dark?
I was reminded that the city is never truly dark when I went camping last summer and the sun set. There is something quite magical about the dark that we lose touch with when we have the lights blazing all the time.
Cheers,
Vanessa
