Turn out your lights for Earth Hour tonight

If you're into making a statement about climate change and the need to conserve energy, why not join many people across the world for Earth Hour tonight? From 8-9pm this evening, many of us will be shutting off our lights, our electrical devices, and everything else drawing power in our homes and making a statement about how we can do more with less...

To learn more, go to the Earth Hour site.

Earth day celebrations include planting trees, answering surveys, gardening, canning, attending rallies or events and in general observing the importance earth has in the continuation of the human species. We get so self-absorbed it is sometimes hard to remember that without bees, moss, protozoa, salt water, snakes and grubs and a host of other nearly invisible contributors we would never get up in the morning. So take a day and appreciate the earth for letting you walk around to appreciate it.
