15 Comments on It Comes Around Again, This Saturday!
I had not read anywhere that Earth Hour ws this weekend so I am glad you mentioned it here. This year I am just going to enjoy this gift of an hour of silence. A gift of time to refresh the mind and the spirit. :0)
The point of Earth Hour is to make people aware of the need to save power. Saving power is good for the environment and your budget. Turning off the lights for one hour won't accomplish much. Will it motivate people to buy energy efficient appliances, turn their heat down and their air conditioning up? Turn off all the lights at night and unplug your tv's, computers and other electronic equipment. Yes, unplug them, anything that has a standby light is burning electricity 24/7. These are the things that people need to do daily. Instead of observing one hour a year, I have changed my power use habits - that's what really counts.
Thank you for reminding me! Thank you for sharing this post.
That is a great idea that we all should follow.
Ah, earth day. A day when mother earth can stop doing what she does, kick up her heels, and let us carry the burden...
Thanks for the reminder...for some reason I thought it was at 8:30am.
Al and Peggy,
Old Mother Earth can use the hour's rest. I'm in.

Al & Peggy - I can't believe it's that time of year again already.
That sounds like a good plan Martha!
Donna, you have valid points. We have to stop somewhere and hopefully this raises awareness.
Just don't forget by Saturday Ralph LOL! ;)
Josh, can you imagine the difference we could make if we all just did it for an hour a day!
Good way of looking at it Michael!
Oh that is a real busy time Anita! that would be a hard hour to sit quiet! LOL!
Glad to hear it Rich!
We know, went fast right Michelle?
Hi Al and Peggy...sone days it seems my lights are out all day...ha.
I'll follow and certainly do my part, I already follow my wife a flip off lights and she follows me a flips them back on...or so it seems.
Have a Great Earth Day !
It's good that people are starting to take this more seriously. I'm sure mother earth appreciates it, even if it's only for one hour.
We know the lights out no one is home feeling Fred and it happens every day before java time!
Yes, Malcolm, one hour world wide, it has to have an impact. Now if only we could do it every day!
Ill do that, looking to my house, the only appliances I have plugged in, is my fridge, stove, microwave, tv and that is it!! I keep everything to a minimum :)
That is excellent Laura, think we will do a walk through our own house!
Al and Peggy, we will be joining you "in the dark" ;-)
