Earth Hour
Posted March 23, 2009
on:There have been a lot of changes in who I am, or rather what I focus on, over the last several years. I feel that college was probably my most outspoken years, as I assume it tends to be for most people. However, that doesn’t mean that I am not still highly opinionated (just ask Jonathan), that I am not still very passionate about certain causes, and that I am not willing to take a stand for things I believe matter most.
WWF is hosting Earth Hour on March 28 at 8:30 pm. The premise behind their mission is to take a stand for our earth and the impact we are making. The idea is to shut off your lights for one hour as a means to give back to the earth. It’s a way to show your willingness to stop consuming and to start giving back.
Our family will be taking part of Earth Hour and I encourage all of you to do the same. Be creative; have a bonfire, eat by candle light, enjoy seeing the stars, even host an Earth Hour party. Take a stand for our Earth, remember that God gave us dominion over this world and as such we need to care for it, not destroy it.

An old friend works for one of the big theatres in Chi-town and they are going to make electricity from 10 bikes for 40 hours total of energy to power their marquee for that 1 Earth hour. Crazy!
