Earth Hour this Saturday

A friend of mine has an idea that during the summertime her family would do without electricity for a short period of time.
That inspired some conversation at our dinner table tonight, among things how we would cook, like maybe just eating from the pantry and cooking out where we could.
This would be done mostly so we can understand what it is like for those who live without energy for things like lights or the creature comforts of television and the like.
Anyway, we happened to come across an article tonight in which everyone in the world can make a statement about energy conservation by turning off their lights for an hour at 8:30 p.m. this Saturday.

I think we might even flick the switch off earlier so that the girls can participate in the experience it as well.
