Tomorrow night at 8:30, people and businesses all over the world will be turning off their lights for one hour to celebrate the Earth for Earth Hour 2009. Lights will be turned off throughout New York, on the Strip in Las Vegas, and lots of places in our local area such as:
Frederick, Montgomery and Prince Georges Counties in Maryland
Washington National Cathedral
The Smithsonian Castle
Embassies from Austria, Belize, Canada, Finland, Great Britain and Sweden
American, Howard, and George Washington Universities
Gallaudet University - WOW! This is a university for deaf students - turning off the lights for an hour here is dedication to the cause!
Many government and city buildings and landmarks throughout the Washington DC area.
The Fairmount Washington, and Sheraton and Westin Hotels in Reston Heights
and many restaurants.
Here's the link to WWF's Earth Hour - if you haven't signed up to participate yet, please do so. See how your community is participating! What can we do to help the Earth? http://www.earthhourus.org/newyork/newyork.php
