Google went black today in honor of energy savings. It admittedly recognized that turning the monitor black does not save any energy, but it is supposed to make us aware of Earth Hour. Whereby several cities across the world are turning off the lights tonight.
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.
