Shut off your lights, today for EARTH DAY.

This Saturday we are shutting off all of our lights from 8-9pm.
Asked by one of my FACEBOOK groups to turns off our lights for one hour, if we all participate, we can reduce this year's carbon footprint by approximately 22,290,910 pounds. That's equivalent to saving 400,000 trees or preventing 8.4 million pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere.

What can you do?
Turn off your lights!

Last year 2.2 million people shut off their lights for one hour to show their awareness towards global warming. If we can help to spread the awareness, we can become a part of a great cause that will help to preserve the earth.

Think of what you can do in the dark.

We did it here too. We started early at 7pm and kept them off all night. It was great. I look forward to doing it again.
