What difference can one person make? Ask the organizers of “Earth Hour,” who saw their idea to fight climate change by turning off electrical power for 60 minutes spread in two years from a local project in Sydney, Australia to a global phenomenon. 

Here in Boston, the Citgo sign, Prudential Center, Zakim Bridge, and other landmarks will “go dark” from 8:30-9:30 pm on March 28.  Will your city participate (some of the other participating cities: Washington, D.C., New York City, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Chicago, Atlanta, Miami, and Dallas)?  Will you?

The video below should power up your inspiration to participate, so to speak.  I particularly love the song they feature: “One Crowded Hour.”  Indeed.  Wow.
