Google is looking very cool today - I think it should always be like that
I'll be turning things off (although not the fish tank or pond electrics) but every little helps

Re: Earth Hour

Excellent idea. This is the first I have heard of it. I wonder why it has not been publicised more?

Re: Earth Hour

Our local paper the southern daily echo had it as front page full spread. The main big shopping mall, the civic centre and tower, and a lot more large businesses in Southampton were all taking part. They gave a lot of facts about other world participants and what amount of energy was saved last year
