Its on the 27th.

did anyone notice the picture of the poster says it's March 28th but Alicia is saying the 27th...i don't mind doing it for both days but which one is the actual one? haha

It is Saturday the 27th, I get the emails for Earth hour. They probably just put the wrong date on the poster. But hey, do it both days if you want! Last year we played a board game by candlelight and it was really fun! It's nice to just turn out the lights and turn off the tv for once and REALLY enjoy someone else's company. It's really quite relaxing.

Everyday should be earh awareness day.  :-)

Hey all!  I LOVE WHERE I LIVE! They are always so ON IT when it comes to protecting and preserving our planet! Take a look! :D  This was in our paper today about Earth Hour! They are talking about the city's efforts- but you can BET the residents here will be taking part-it's so exciting! :D
Boulder to take part in Earth Hour 2010Camera StaffPosted: 03/26/2010 10:51:27 AM MDT

Boulder will join cities around the world Saturday night in turning off non-essential lights for one hour in celebration of Earth Hour 2010.

 

 

The global climate event, led by the World Wildlife Fund, has more than 4,100 cities around the world committed to go dark for one hour beginning at 8:30 p.m. on Saturday. The event is part of a symbolic global call to action on climate change.

 

In Boulder, non-essential lights in all city-owned buildings and facilities will be turned off during Earth Hour.  Public schools, commercial and residential buildings and local businesses will be encouraged to do the same.

 

According to the city, if all Boulder households and businesses went dark for one hour, carbon dioxide emissions would be reduced by 18 metric tons. That's equivalent to one Boulder household's entire carbon footprint for a year.

 

The city is also asking residents to replace at least three old light bulbs with compact fluorescent lights or pledge to take one action this year to reduce their carbon footprint.

This should happen everyday!

We had so much fun.  took pics, read the earth hour page before we started then we lit candles, turned on our lantern, and we also sang happy birthday to our 24 and 26-year-old (2yrs and 1 day apart).  The 26-year-old had already gone out with his friends, but we sang to him anway.  It was really awesome to watch all the tweets from all over the world.  I was amazed.

It was our very first earth hour.  We're thinking of picking certain days to do this. 

I was reading THe Kind Diet by cell phone light during the Earth Hour!!  It was awesome!
