Earth Hour 2013 is Saturday
World Wildlife Fund's global initiative asks people and businesses to turn off lights for one hour.
Earth Hour 2013 is from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. Saturday, March 23.
Earth Hour is World Wildlife Fund's global initative where individuals, schools, organizations, businesses and governments turn off their lights for one hour to cast a vote in favor of action on climate change.
Residents are encouraged to turn off non-essential lighting in their homes during this hour.
Earth Hour is a simple idea that quickly turned into a global phenomenon, according to World Wildlife. Hundreds of millions of people around the world turn off their lights for one hour on the same night, to focus on the one thing that unites us all—our planet.

" to cast a vote in favor of action on climate change. "
idiots. you will never stop the climate from changing. it's been happening for millions of years and man can't do anything about it.
and if you believe the alarmists, like the infamous Michael Mann...he of the 'hockey stick graph', i really do feel sorry for you.

Earth Hour.
ridiculous.
surprised this isn't combined with a holding hands event where "we are the world" is being sung across the suburban landscape... that is one big fricken strip mall.

it's a nice idea if you are a climate alarmist, i guess.
everyone is entitled to believe what they want as long as they don't try to force it on everyone else. and try to get our tax money to pay for silly schemes that eventually redistribute money from the suburbs to the inner city.
