Lights Out - Earth Hour!

You will notice this week that I "turned the lights out" on ZakMeents.com as a gesture to raise awareness of a worldwide energy conservation effort called Earth Hour.

The reason I do not do this permanently - it saves no energy; modern displays use the same amount of power regardless of what they display. However, you can do something to reduce the energy consumption of your home PC by joining the Climate Savers Computing Initiative.

On Saturday, March 29, 2008, Earth Hour invites people around the world to turn off their lights for one hour – from 8:00pm to 9:00pm in their local time zone. On this day, cities around the world, including Copenhagen, Chicago, Melbourne, Dubai, and Tel Aviv, will hold events to acknowledge their commitment to energy conservation.

We've turned ours out, Time for you to do the same!
