Top Five Things To Do During Earth Hour

8pm tonight you are going to turn all of your power off. That means no tv, no movies, no internet! What are you going to do to survive for sixty minutes while you help save the planet???

Top Five Things to do during Earth Hour:

  1. Wind up that crank radio and listen to Jill Barber on Canada Live on CBC. It was a great concert at the Cohn and you'll be able to hear me clapping in the crowd (back in February).
  2. Light a candle and play a board game with your friends and family.
  3. Tells stories in the dark like you would do when camping or when the power goes out during a storm. Bring a guitar but leave the amp home.
  4. Go for a walk and take pictures of the parts of town in darkness.
  5. It's only an hour, but you could... you know... help keep someone warm.
Top Five Things Not to do during Earth Hour:

  1. Watch CNN's coverage of Earth Hour on your big screen TV.
  2. Spend 60 minutes in a high-watt tanning bed.
  3. See how many crayons you can melt in one hour on the electric radiator with the temperature cranked.
  4. Tumble dry one item for 60 minutes on high heat.
  5. Steal the surplus energy in the power grid for your underground lab to test out your new Death Ray Weapon.
