Earth Hour!

Saturday at 8:30, in every time zone, the lights will be out, hopefully. Earth hour was started in Australia 2 years ago and spread throughout the world like wild fire. It is an attempt to save the world by cutting back on our energy dependence. By shutting of all the power for an hour, they hope to save some kilowatts, and save some money. The program is a great idea and a good start towards a greener future.
I think the program has potential to really make a good impact on our society. If everyone turns the lights off in the world at 8:30 til 9:30 in their separate time zone, it has the potential to help our world greatly. I think it is about time that someone started to take some initiative against our growing problem with the environment. I hope that this catches on even bigger and we can soon start going from once a a year doing this to maybe once a month doing it. Then maybe for more than an hour eventually. The Earth Hour has even been endorsed by big celebrities who support it, showing their concern also. Once they endorse it and it becomes more popular, it only gives it more potential to grow.
