2009 Earth Hour

Here is a photo of Petunia (my cat) as we participated in last nights WWF sponsored Earth Hour. In case you missed it, Earth Hour was a campaign to raise awareness about energy consumption by encouraging folks to go without power for an hour 8:30 through 9:30. Many famous landmarks (the Sydney Opera House, the Eiffel Tower, the Vegas Strip, etc.) participated in the campaign. If you are intrigued by the idea and were unaware of it happening, you can just pick your own earth hour. I am thinking of trying it once a week for a while. It was relaxing to have everything turned off. I realized I don't spend much time in silence. This was a pleasant side effect of turning everything off. Enjoy.
