Green is definitely the new black. Our Earth most definitely deserves its hour and I think that time has about arrived. The folks over at Earth Hour agree (or do I agree with them?).
SA Rocks officially supports Earth Hour. I have registered and will be turning off all my lights at 20:30 on March 28th. All you need to do is click on the banner in the left sidebar (The big Earth Hour banner you can see there now) or click on the link below and register yourself.
Register to participate in Earth Hour!
Here are a few words from the site and a video to follow:
Earth Hour 2009 is a global initiative by the World Wide Fund for Nature which acts as a worldwide call to action to every individual, business and community to take a stand against Climate Change. To show your support, sign up now and commit to switching off your lights for one hour on Saturday, March 28th at 8:30pm. Originating in Sydney, Australia in 2007, the Earth Hour initiative proved more than worthwhile when it witnessed 2 million people coming together to switch off their lights for one hour for this vital cause.
