Earth Hour - 29th March

Earth Hour is coming up on the 29th of March, 8pm. Turn off all your lights from then until 9pm if you're participating, but many people have called it a waste of time, producing insignificant results. A better idea would be the "digital Sabbath" where you leave your computer, television and power-hungry devices off for one day in every seven. Instead of saving only one hour's worth of energy over a year, you'll be saving 52 days' worth.

PS - Apparently there are psychological benefits to unplugging one day out of seven, too.
PPS - If I had made the Earth Hour photo gallery on the website, it would have been all completely dark pictures.
