I have been busy this week, and a little out of the loop, but just this morning I was reading an article on-line about Earth Hour.
Apparently tomorrow, Saturday March 29th at 8pm worldwide – many cities are encouraging local businesses and in some cases, residents, to go dark for one hour.
Denver is no exception and Denver's Mayor has encouraged Denver's residents and business to take part.
I like the idea. I am the type of person that often delves deep into thought, and I can say that there have been many a times that I have wondered, driving around at night – are all of those lights really necessary?
I hope that follow up statistics are released about the amount of energy saved worldwide – and perhaps a more regularly initiative can be considered and put into place. I particularly like the part of the Earth Hour web site about Earth Hour Every Day.
