Do you know what earth hour is? It is when millions around the world turn off their lights for one hour on the last Saturday in March, which is tomorrow! For the past three years, this event has been celebrated as a movement towards climate change.
It was interesting to learn that celebrity mom and model, Gisele Bundchen is endorsing the 2010 Earth Hour. See her video clip below:

History & Mission of Earth Hour
On Earth Hour hundreds of millions of people, organizations, corporations and governments around the world will come together to make a bold statement about their concern for climate change by doing something quite simple—turning off their lights for one hour. In the U.S. where we are already feeling the impacts of climate change, Earth Hour sends a clear message that Americans care about this issue and want to turn the lights out on dirty air, dangerous dependency on foreign oil and costly climate change impacts, and make the switch to cleaner air, a strong economic future and a more secure nation.
Participation is easy. By flipping off your lights on March 27th at 8:30 p.m. local time you will be making the switch to a cleaner, more secure nation and prosperous America.
What will you be doing tomorrow night between 8:30pm and 9:30pm?
