Turn Out the Lights…

03.27.2009

The Bite:
…and you’ll glow? Clearly, Vanilla Ice does, and you can too - with eco pride - starting 8:30 pm tomorrow. Once again, SF’s getting in on World Wildlife Fund's Earth Hour 2009, bringing worldwide attention (from Rio to Dubai) to global warming. Just flip your light switches off from 8:30-9:30 pm - and check out iconic spots like Union Square, City Hall, and the Golden Gate Bridge doing the same. Plus there’s City-sponsored events for you to get in on, like weeding at the Corona Hilltop Restoration with SF Parks and Rec from 10 am ‘til noon, or planting 60 trees in 60 minutes with FUF at 8:30 am in the Presidio. Word to your mother (earth).
Wanna Try: 
Earth Hour, Mar. 28, 8:30 pm.

Cocktail Fact

Vanilla Ice (né Robert Van Winkle  - seriously) wrote Ice Ice Baby when he was 16.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 SF Biter households turn off 10 lights tomorrow night for just one hour, we'll avert the CO2 generated by an average apartment in a year.
