Turn Off Your Lights


Tonight, from 8:30-9:30 it's Earth Hour.  (I never heard of it either, so don't feel bad.) Started in Australia by the World Wildlife Fun as a way to support the planet, Earth Hour now now has 100's of millions of people from all over the world participating.  You are supposed to turn out your lights for 1 hour. Lots of landmarks including the Washington's National Cathedral, Big Ben, the Great Wall of China, the Sydney Opera House, Notre Dame, the Arc de Triomphe, Tokyo Tower, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Empire State Building, and many more will be in the dark from 8:30-9:30.  The idea is to get everyone motivated to be inspired to make environmental changes.   Linda loves this idea, it gives her a good reason to go to bed at 8:30 instead of 9:30!!
