Earth Hour 2010 is 27 March 2010 - 11 months from TODAY! My first blog post regarding Earth Hour 2010 goes live at 8:30pm Pacific Time (Los Angeles) this evening as a reminder that Earth Hour is coming. blacktieandflipflops.blogspot.com

Earth Hour 2010 ?

Tue, 31 Mar 2009 08:03:31 -0500

Earth Hour 2010 is 27 March 2010 (Earth Hour is always the last Saturday in March) I do not see an Earth Hour 2010 event yet, and my attempt to create one was denied. Hmmm. But I persist! An Earth Hour 2010 goal has been established on the goal oriented website 43things.com : http://www.43things.com/things/view/2483045/illuminate-awareness-of-climate-change-by-spending-earth-hour-2010-in-the-dark-on-27-march-2010 for those who might be interested. Cheers

Earth Hour All Year Round

Fri, 27 Mar 2009 10:46:43 -0500

I have been writing about Earth Hour since the last Earth Hour. Earth Hour 2010 will take place on 27 March 2010. So, starting with 27 April 2009, and continuing every month until Earth Hour I will be counting down the months both on my blog and my company blog. Pictures of the before and afters of world monuments will be included, as well as tips and ideas to make Earth Hour a fun occassion for people everywhere. Links, lots of links, to organizations that participated in Earth Hour 2009 will also be included - these will be anything from local restaurant associations, to sports clubs, to churches. I am very hopeful that Earth Hour will finally be recognized in the United States in 2009, with 2010 being even bigger (or is darker more appropriate). It is my understanding that both the White House and the Capitol Building will go dark tomorrow evening (oh how I love the Obamas). So here's to establishing my goal of blogging for Earth Hour 2010!

Hope the Philippines and people here in Davao get on in the action too! Pinoy bloggers, we should!

Vote Earth

I've added a huge banner about Earth Hour, which I found through this site: http://www.voteearth2009.org/home/ I joined last year's Earth Hour and that one hour was time well spent not only for the planet but for me and my mom. We spent the hour talking in the living in the dark.. It was really a memorable time for me, sharing my thoughts with her about what is happening today in all aspects of life and society, especially pressing matters such as environmental issues. "Treat the Earth well. It was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children." ~ Ancient Indian Proverb

What We Bloggers Can Do For the Earth Hour

Tue, 17 Mar 2009 07:00:06 -0500

One very simple practice you and I could do is avoiding late night blogging. Do not sacrifice your precious sleeping time to blog. What for? I am not going to read your blog at this hour. By turning off lights and going to bed before 2300 every night could help to reduce carbon footprints. And it is good for your health too!

one hour no power

I think that from 1:00 am to 2:00 am the power should go "out" for that one hour.

It's coming to America

word on the street is that most of the major monuments in Washington DC will go dark for the hour; I am thinking of heading to the Hudson River to watch Manhattan go dark ... last year was a start for us in the states - let's see how dark we can make Earth Hour 2009!
