Earth Hour 2009

This weekend people across the country and across the world will hit the switch to show support for our Environment. Earth Hour 2009 is scheduled for March 28th from 8:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. local time. The idea behind Earth Hour is to turn off all of your electric lights for one hour to make a statement about energy use and climate change.

This is a great opportunity to build awareness of how our energy use is effecting the world around us. It is important for people and businesses to be aware of the green house gas emissions. By turning off non-essential lighting a family can save money on their electric bills. Your family can begin to make a difference by reducing its energy consumption. With Millions of us around the world working together we can make a difference.

This weekend is an easy opportunity to get started. Don't just turn off the lights in your home. Ask a neighbor to do the same or encourage the entire neighborhood to participate.
