EARTH HOUR 2009


Let's try Quilting by Candlelight for just one hour tonight!!


To participate in Earth Hour 2009 all you have to do is to turn off all lights on Saturday 28th March 2009 from 8.30pm till 9.30pm. (of course this will not affect essential street lights and security lights, safety is paramount)

If you want more information about Earth Hour the best website to check out is : http://www.earthhour.org/. The YouTube video is worth a look at.

Here is an excerpt from the Earth Hour website.

THIS IS THE WORLD’S FIRST GLOBAL ELECTION, BETWEEN EARTH AND GLOBAL WARMING.
On March 28 you can VOTE EARTH by switching off your lights for one hour.Or you can vote global warming by leaving your lights on.
The results of the election are being presented at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009. We want one billion votes for Earth, to tell world leaders that we have to take action against global warming.
