DO: Earth Hour

It’s only an hour, but it’s also a powerful reminder of how little sacrifices add up to big change. At 8:30 tonight, please do join more than a billion people around the world and turn off your lights, appliances, computers and cars.



What to do without your laptop? Light a candle and spend some technology free quality time with the people around you. Meditate or read by candlelight. Engage in discussion about our impact on the planet. Alternately, pedal or walk around to check out the sights in your town or city. I had a pretty cool feeling of connection when I watched the Lion’s Gate Bridge lights go out this time last year. We were all on the same path, at least for that one hour.
