Tomorrow night at 8:30pm, in whatever time zone you are in, you have a chance to participate in Earth Hour. According to the site, China will lead the way in starting Earth Hour this year. That’s just great. Nee-How!
The traditional – that is, “traditional” in the same air-quote sense as “Kwanzaa” is a traditional African holiday that is, as traditional as an African holiday can be when it is created by an American socialist in 1966 – way to celebrate Earth Hour is to turn off all your lights and live like a non-tool-using animal for an hour. I encourage you all to celebrate a neo reformation Earth Hour by turning all your lights on.
All your lights – your closets, your garage, your mud room, great room, entry way, back porch, etc. This works even better when you have complete lefties nearby, like we do across the street.
When you participate, take some video or pictures. Tweet out loud in the midst of the brightness (using #earthhour). And make sure you upload it all to the sites listed at www.EarthHour.org (video: http://www.youtube.com/group/earthhourglobal photos: http://flickr.com/groups/eh2010).
Also, is it just me, or is it interesting to see what they chose to cover up in this map?
I mean, the planet is 70% covered by water and they had to put their little info box over the United States? I mean even just placing it by chance, they could have hit the ocean.
Here’s wishing you and yours a very happy and incandescently bright Earth Hour!
