Earth Hour 2008

Join me and millions around the world on March 29th for Earth Hour 2008. When you turn off your lights ON 3/29th for an hour you are making a statement about climate change. The first Earth Hour started last year in Sydney, Australia and had the effect of taking 48,000 cars off the road for an hour. Impressive what we can accomplish when we try. This year it will be a global event. Check out the Earth Hour site and sign up to show your support just like I did!

Banning Light BULBS ??

Not just light bulbs, but Incandescent ones. So, this post is about Canada banning incandescent light bulbs by 2012 . Interesting, why don't they think of these ideas here in the U.S.? or China (who are the largest contributors of harmful emissions). They say that switching to more efficient lighting is one of the easiest & effective ways to reduce energy & harmful emissions & would reduce the harmful gas by more than 6 million tons per year. Home Decor might look different but its a great Idea!
