Celebrate the Earth Today As Earth Hour Has Begun

By Susan Ellis of keylifejourneys.com


Today is the day to celebrate the Earth by turning out your lights for WWF’s Earth Hour! Whether it’s by having an intimate dinner at home, a family games night, dancing under the stars at a neighbourhood party or enjoying some music at an Earth Hour concert, make Earth Hour your own. Take pride in the fact that you are standing up against climate change and that you are doing it with up to a billion people worldwide in over 120 countries!

Remember, Earth Hour takes place at 8:30 p.m. local time so the official global kickoff has already started! Beginning in Fiji, the lights went out and the Earth Hour wave has begun.

Check out the World Wildlife Fund's Earth Hour blog for the latest details, view images and videos from around the globe and watch as Canada gets ready to show the rest of the world how to celebrate!

Update: More than 4000 cities, towns and municipalities have now confirmed their participation in Earth Hour 2010, across 125 countries and territories. Fiji, New Zealand and Australia are some of the countries who’ve already celebrated!

So as the big event makes its way across time zones and continents to reach us in Canada, stay tuned for photos, videos and stories from some of the millions of people who are participating.
