Tonight is Earth Hour!

Remember to turn off all your lights from 8:30pm-9:30pm!

DOes this include computers and tv's?

 

[Magic Mom]

What if I am having friends over? Should I just make them sit in the dark for an hour?

What if there's an eBay auction I'm bidding on that ends during that time?

 

[Magic Mom]

I'm sure Ebay is a valid excuse.

I think all they ask is that you turn off your lights. If you turn off your computer and tv that's better, but more people are willing to just turn off their lights.

A PP asked about having friends over and sitting in the dark. I personally would make my friends sit in the dark for an hour hahaha. Light some candles or something
But it's up to you what you're willing to do.

It's time, it's time!
Here anyways.

DH just went around the house turning lights off and lighting candles, i feel like it's time to go to bed!

I just looked out my window and my whole street is BLACK! Everyone has their lights off
I live out in the country but I can see 6 or 7 houses and they're all black! Yippee!

I have them all on. I was wondering if they rent out spotlights? The earth will be just fine.

one more hour here... well half hour now...

I usually sit in the dark besides the computer. I doubt I'd be getting my aunt to turn off the tv... that thing goes all day long.

I believe it's FOR SURE turning off lights and then- trying to conserve what ever else we can as well. We are shutting off our lights. The plan was to play a 'family card game' by candle light tonight. Now DD6 is not feeling well, so it may just be the 3 of us (DH, me and DD8) playing a game while one TV is on for DD6 to watch as she lays in bed.

DD8 and DD6 learned about earth hour in school on Friday, so they are all hyped up about it! DD8 came home with all these 'rules' and DH and I thought we'd try them just to humor our girls. Heck, it's only an hour! And it gives us a chance to do something fun as a family with out using electricity.

It's not time here yet. But, I'm turning on my outside lights at 8:30. I don't believe in man caused global warming, so I want to protest the silly Earth Day.

Oops. Too late. Need more warning next time.
