Earth Hour will take place throughout the Philippines from 8 to 9 in the evening on Saturday night, 29 March 2008. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) invites you to participate by shutting lights off for 60 minutes, organizing your own “lights-out” event or by forwarding this to your friends, workmates and family.
Launched in Australia on the 31st of March 2007, Earth Hour moved 2.2 million people and 2100 businesses in Sydney to turn off their lights for one hour.
This massive collective effort reduced the city’s energy consumption by 10.2% for one hour. With Sydney icons like the Harbour Bridge and Opera House turning their lights off and unique events such as weddings by candlelight, the world took notice. Inspired by the collective effort of millions of Sydneysiders, many major global cities are joining Earth Hour in 2008, turning a symbolic event into a global movement.
Your participation will go a long way in spreading the message that we – as individual droplets working collectively can create an impetus far more powerful than the mightiest of rivers. For more information, log on to the WWF Earth Hour page at: http://www.earthhour.org

“Nice” repartee you have… calling someone an idiot.
Very typical you “earth is hotting up” types.” That aside, how do you know how many hours I spend “just sitting in front” of my computer?
You don’t, you have no valid argument how this sham of a political stunt by the global-wamists will accomplish anything so you have to resort to guessing what I do and tossing out childish invectives.
