Earth Hour 2008

Earth Hour 2007 was an event initiated in Sydney with the goal of a 5% reduction in energy consumption in the area.

2,2 million people turned their lights out for an hour then, the energy saved being the equivalent of taking off the road 48,000 cars in that time.

This year, we're all invited to join in on Earth Hour. Accordingly, we are all invited to turn off our lights for a full hour - 20:00 to 21:00 - on the 29th of March.

According to Wikipedia (which never lies): "As of 18 March, over 9000 businesses and 136,000 individuals had indicated their intention to participate at earthhour.org.", as opposed to the "68,506 individuals and 2,270 businesses (that) registered their intention to participate on the Earth Hour website." last year (2007).

So, it's up to you whether or not you participate in the event this year... but, if you won't do it for the energy savings, do it for the bunnies! (what do you mean, "what bunnies"? The bunnies that are counting on you to turn off the lights so they can do their...business...you know, as in hunt other critters?)
