83 countries, 2,398 municipalities, 5,481 organizations and 18,783 businesses already have committed to supporting Earth Hour on Saturday, and it's easy for you to help the cause, too!
At 8:30 p.m. Saturday, turn off your lights and leave them off for one hour (or longer if you're feeling generous!). By doing so, you're helping the global conservation organization WWF take action against global warming.
Earth Hour started in 2007 with 2.2 million participants and quickly jumped to 50 million in 2008. This year, the organization hopes to have 1 billion people participate, and those who turn off their lights and "vote" for earth will aid WWF's presentation to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference, which will determine government policies against global warming.
We all know how important it is to take care of our main lady, Mother Earth, and if you join Earth Hour, you'll be part of a much larger effort to save the planet.
xoxo,
Lisa Marie
