Its been on the NEWS, all over twitter, facebook…all networks are talking about it. And if you still say you are not aware what Earth Hour is, “Dude what have you been upto?” 😛
Jokes apart this is meant to be serious…and the serious thing is that of the many ways you can contribute to stop global warming, this is one way that you should definitely follow!
What is Earth hour?
This event first happened in 2007 and was organized by WWF & The Sunday Morning Herald in Sydney. Its a global event when everyone is encouraged to turn off non-essential lights/electrical appliances for an hour. This is to raise awareness about climate change. Check Earth Hour Wiki for more.
When is Earth Hour celebrated?
Earth Hour is celebrated on the last Saturday of March. This year, it is on 27th March, 2010. Official time for earth hour is 8:30pm-9:30pm. In India, Abhishek Bachchan is promoting this.
What can you do for Earth Hour?
Well, its pretty simple, as you must have understood by now. Turn off all the lights and electronic appliances. Sit with friends and family in darkness. You will realize you had one of the best times and that you had not shared so much with people for so long.
All major companies, monuments, malls are also celebrating world earth hour! Why are you behind. Also, tell people about this and spread awareness.
Earth Hour really helps in promoting environmental awareness among the young generation.
