Earth Hour – quick where’s my candle?
Heading: Earth Hour what a fantastic concept.
Subheading: Earth Hour 2009.
Millions of people sitting in the dark, thinking about the planet for one earth hour and hoping like hell we don’t burn up like overdone toast. I am definitely taking the time this year to sit with my family and switch off the power. My kids will be asking lots of questions.
“What’s Earth Hour?”
“Why are we sitting in the dark?”
“Can I turn the TV back on, please?”
The lights in the city will suddenly go off and we will be pitched into darkness. To think about what life on the planet would be like post cataclysmic, global warming wipe out. Office towers wink out like black beacons to disaster; houses everywhere become invisible; and the four of us sit there holding hands in the dark.
Earth Hour – quick where’s my candle?
Once lit we have a little light and perhaps a little hope for the future – we can all sit there considering how we can reduce our carbon footprint. Turn off a few lights, less TV, shorter showers etc. Climate change is coming to a city near you and it might pay for us all to prepare a bit. Get our heads around the ramifications of global warming. Earth Hour can really help with this process.
Earth Hour will take centre stage in 1000 cities around the world and in 2009 they hope to have 1 billion people taking part. Wow.
I hope that you will join me and the millions of people around the globe on the 28 march, 2009 for Earth Hour.
