What are you doing this Saturday night? At 8 pm (local time) many people across the globe will be participating in Earth Hour. (Warning: dramatic Jeremy Piven narrated sound clip at that link.) The concept behind the Earth Hour movement is simple: shut off your lights for one hour. Just to see what it's like. To get us thinking. Do we really need to be consuming all of the energy that we normally don't give a second thought to using? The movement has expanded globally since its origination last year in Sydney. Now many major cities have embraced it. (A hotel bar in Toronto is even advertising themed drinks in support.) Even though Philadelphia is not listed as a partner that doesn't mean you can't participate.
