So, have you hear about Earth Hour? If you haven't it is probably not because you don't read or watch enough news. The event hasn't really be publicized very well. Even my mom, who reads the Austin newspaper every morning and reads news off the Internet, has not heard of the event. Basically, the idea is that people all over the globe are encouraged to turn their lights and electricity using devices off at 8:30 p.m. tomorrow for a whole hour. The goal is to get 1 billion people to turn their lights out globally in an effort to bring about awareness of global warming. I encourage you to join me tomorrow night, and ask your friends and family to do the same. The website is http://www.earthhour.org/home/ and you can find all kinds of information about movement. I think most people can easily do this for just 60 minutes. Please participate!
