Fresh green links: Earth Hour
So tomorrow night at 8:30pm, it’s Earth Hour 2009. You hadn’t forgotten, had you? Nevermind, here’s a bunch of ideas for what you can do to show the world that you (and millions of other people) want strong action on climate change:
Making Earth Hour happen in your town (pdf file) – tips and suggestions for what you can do to organise your own event, if your city isn’t doing anything special.
Earth Hour blogger kit – with videos, images and information you can use to make a post about it on your own blog
Earth in your hands – make a video showing that we all hold the earth’s future in our hands.
Get the Earth Hour Facebook application – it’ll put your profile picture into candle-light or night-vision for the hour.
Get inspired with what other people are doing by checking out Earth Hour’s sections on YouTube, Flickr and 12seconds. If you’re keen, take a photo or video of yourself during the blackout and post it to these groups. If you haven’t got a YouTube or Flickr account, or don’t need one of your own, but have something to post, let me know and I can put them up for you.





We will be camping….so ALL our lights will definately be off…
Great idea. Sounds like a great weekend too! I’ve just heard of a challenge where you make dinner without using electricity, am going to give it a go.
