Spread the word!

Earth Hour 2009 was spent in South Korea for me.  We lit candles and played drinking games all evening, turning Earth Hour into Earth 3 Hours.  It was great fun drinking with great friends by candlelight and it was an unforgettable evening.

 During Earth Hour 2009

On December 7th to the 18th, our world leaders are gathering in Copenhagen to discuss climate change, specifically with regards to replacing the Kyoto Protocol with an action plan that has new standards to be met and a new strategy for Earth.

A Special Earth Hour is planned for December 16th at 7pm to demonstrate to the UN that we are in support of new strategies for climate change.  So I am proposing that we all turn off our lights in support.  No matter where in the world you are, how many people you have to spend it with, or how many candles or flashlights you own, you can make Earth Hour special, worthwhile, and fun.  Spread the word and have people join you in turning off your lights, or go it alone, either way every light switch helps.  Share your stories of Earth Hour with me and we can get ideas from each other for fun things to do for the 2010 Earth Hour!
