All Travel Destinations In Darkness On March 28!

In another 2 days from now, if you will happen to be on a spaceship beyond our earth, you will witness an unique scene of the earth. For 12 hours starting from 8:30pm local time in Japan, you will see a wave of darkness move hour after hour from Japan, the east most country in the earth, towards the west and stop at US. All major travel destinations would be in darkness for 1 hour, one after one (some will be together if they are in the same time zone).

This special scene is in fact spearheaded by WWF, as part of the Earth Hour project, to make a global call to the world to vote for our earth against the issue of global warming by switching off our lights for 1 hour at 8:30pm on 28th of March 2009, in 2 days time. 2,848 cities, towns and municipalities in 84 countries have already committed to VOTE EARTH for Earth Hour 2009, as part of the worlds first global election between Earth and global warming.

So, on March 28 you can VOTE EARTH by switching off your lights for one hour.
Or you can vote global warming by leaving your lights on. The results of the election are being presented at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009. The targetted votes for Earth is 1 billion, to tell world leaders that we have to take action against global warming.

For me, I would strongly suggest to go to any of the travel destinations, either the Colleseum of Rome, Opera in Sydney, Golden gate bridge in US, The Pyramid of Egypt, or the Olympic stadium of Birdnest in Beijing, and stay up till 8:30 in the evening, just to witness the historical moment of our lives, in our earth.

After the hour of darkness, you will feel some freshness and coolness around you… Mark this date: Saturday, March 28, 8:30-9:30pm. – Travel Feeder.
