Many Canadians will be spending an hour with the lights out tonight as they join people around the world in marking the tenth annual Earth Hour.
The event is aimed at drawing attention to climate change and for people to show they support efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The World Wildlife Fund has championed Earth Hour since 2007 when it started in Australia.
It has since grown to a worldwide movement.
The WWF says this year's events include everything from a choir performing by candlelight in Montreal to skating under the stars in Vancouver to a candlelight walk and yoga in Toronto.
Last year's event saw Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and a number of cabinet ministers join in.

Thanks for reminding me. I'm going to PVR it while I watch a movie, with the gas fireplace on and a bowl of microwave popcorn. :spitcoffee:

We are turning off the lights and hooking up the cat wheel to the generator.

I turned off the Leaf game and sat in the dark. Didn't miss much.

Earth Hour is a joke.

The irony of that statement is Earth Hour is meant to make people aware about it.

Not quite, considering I didn't even realize it was still a thing. At least not until I saw Rick's post.

Another LEFT-Wing, Non event, that is subsidized with Tax Dollars, that would be much better applied elsewhere.
Participation is DOWN again this year in Toronto.
People are becoming immune to the Propaganda.
