2030-2130 hours. This has been designated "Earth Hour," and is actually a yearly event to be held every last Saturday of March.
This is more than just a symbolic act of saving power for one hour. Anyone can save power any hour of any day. But to switch off your lights for Earth Hour is to join the movement to VOTE EARTH.
The target is to actually reach one billion votes (or one billion light switches turned off), and the results would be presented at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Climate change, ladies and gentlemen, is a very serious issue. So serious, in fact, that whatever policies the world powers make will determine the direction of human history. If you don't believe me, check the weather. Rains in March? This was unheard of in our grandparents' time.
So if you didn't vote this year, then make sure to VOTE EARTH next year.
Oh, before I forget. I'd just like to say that I love the logo.
Now where can I get an Earth Hour t-shirt?
I heart Earth.
