Earth Hour 2009 - March 28, 8:30pm

Posted by Margaret H Stout in energy , EarthHour , conservation

It's that time of the year again!

Earth HourEarth Hour 2009 is coming up. Even though I really think we should do it once a month at least.

Last year, my family and I turned out all the lights and electronics in the house. Kids took adventure of the last 30 minutes of sunlight to play soccer in the backyard with their dad, while I went around tidy up my garden a little bit to get ready for spring. After it got dark, we each held a candle in a used yogurt container (it was windy), and took a walk around the block. Then we came back home, sat around the candle light and told ghost stories until it's time for the kids to go to bed.
