Make Earth Hour Count

It's time to stock up on some extra candles! For 1 hour tomorrow, March 29, 2008 at 8 p.m (your local time), millions of people around the world are shutting their lights out as a positive energy saving statement for our planet. Earth Hour was created by the World Wildlife Fund in Sydney last year and in one year has become a global movement. More than 100 cities across North America are participating.

The question is... what will you do in the dark for 1 hour? Here are some ideas to get you started:

*Take a few minutes today to stock up on some candles. IKEA sells them by the boatload for cheap, or splurge a little and get some sexy scented ones.

*Invite your man over for some nookie and save the world while you savor each other... ;)

*Invite the girls over, open a bottle of red and share some juicy gossip or embarrassing secrets easier told in the dark.

*If you're a mom, take this opportunity to teach your kids about the environment by setting a good example and play some games as a family. Get some popcorn and other snacks going and play some easy boardgames by candlelight. Make it a fun event.

*Enjoy it solo with a bubble bath, a good book and lots of candles.

*Find a local lookout point, bring a blanket and some snacks and enjoy watching your city take part in this powerful movement.

Whatever you do we hope you will participate. Are you in?
