Earth Hour

On March 28 you can VOTE EARTH by switching off your lights for one hour between 8:30pm and 9:30pm. Or you can vote global warming by leaving your lights on.

The results of the election are being presented at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009. They want one billion votes for Earth, to tell world leaders that we have to take action against global warming.




For more information you can check out their myspace page or their facebook group.
