joegodaI think it is so incredibly neat that all over the world, from 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm, local time to whomever, companies and individuals are turning off their lights or dimming non-essential ones. Granted the Eiffel Tower was dark for only 5 minutes for safety reasons, but still.... think about it!
I have no idea if it will save that much energy, and I don't really care. Humans are wasteful animals. What I like is the idea of the sharing, of the caring, of the joining. For one hour, as it spreads across the world, millions, and perhaps billions, of individuals have made a conscious choice to be a part of one very large SuperSet.
How cool is that?
