Earth Hour 2011

Yesterday from 8.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m. was Earth Hour. Like so many good things, Earth Hour was born in Australia in 2007 and it takes place every year on the last Saturday in March. I've never missed Earth Hour, so yesterday I turned off all the electrical appliances and lights and went back to basics: I lit two tealight candles and enjoyed a quiet evening.
