Last night we joined in the Earth hour campaign and switched all our lights off between 8pm and 9pm. Earth hour started in Sydney last year but this years event was global. The idea was to switch off your lights for an hour to highlight the need for action on global warming and the contribution that electricity generation makes.
So we switched all the lights off and lit candles around the house. We even had to put the shopping away by the light of three candles in the kitchen. It was rather nice and we all agreed that we should light the house by candles more often!
