Think what would happen if all the lights in the photo went out. Next month, they will.
Tel Aviv municipality has joined a growing list of cities involved in Earth Hour, a one hour citywide blackout designed to call attention to the dangers of global warming. The blackout is set to begin at 8:00 P.M. on 29 March. The idea started last year in Sydney, Australia and now includes 12 cities and many corporations and individuals.
Kudos to JTA for bringing this to our attention.

Global warming is becoming such an obvious problem that someone somewhere other than the US President needs to step up to help drive a campaign which aims to reduce Global Warming.

Global Warming and Climate Change is the biggest environmental issue that we face these days. the long term effects of these environmental changes to a nations economy is quite damaging. there would be a shortage in food supply as well as on water supply too.

Could not agree more. The big cities from around the world could take a leaf out of the 12 cities involved so far. Global warming needs to be taken more seriously.
