How will you be celebrating Earth Hour tonight?

"At 8:30 PM on Saturday 26th March 2011, lights will switch off around the globe for Earth Hour and people will commit to actions that go beyond the hour"
Rather than feeling guilty and doing penance (that will do absolutely nothing to help the environment) for our use of electricity, this family will be celebrating the wonder and innovation of electricity tonight. We will turn on our porch light on at 8:30.  We will be grateful that we are no longer living in the Dark Ages.  That we have high-tech NICU units for our most fragile babies.  That we have an electric pump that pulls clean water out of the ground.  That we can Google.  That dentists have sterile equipment. That we have life-saving AED units. None of these things would be possible without electricity.


So, how will you be celebrating Earth Hour?
