My husband and I live in a very dark little apartment with hardly any windows, so if we turned the lights out we would not be able to see at all. However, during the daylight hours we get enough natural light in here through the two little windows we do have, that we don't need lights during the daytime, so we don't use them when we don't need them.

I just so happen to be in a beach resort when that happened and yes the resort owner did comply with the earth hour and they turned off the lights for one hour. We on the other hand enjoyed the night scenery outside since the weather was clear. The stars were indeed brighter than they used to be.

Yes, we turned off the lights for an hour and had fun with ghost stories. There were 4 of us girls in the house. It was not totally dark because the neighbors' lights were not switched off and even the street lights were swirched on. Downtown area only a few establihments were turning off their lights others were just dimming the lights. Most people knew about these while some participated and some were just not into it.

Hello
It was really good to see such a initiative being taken to protect the environment. I also participated in this and so do my nighbours. Theres much talk going on to protect our environment. This event gave us all a chance to do something for this purpose. But this must not be restrictede to one day only.
Everyday we can contribute something by switching off unneccesary lights and by taking many more steps towards our environment protection.
