North American Earth hour tonight from 8-9 PM

Tonight is the North American Earth Hour. From 8-9 PM people across North America are going to be turning off their lights and unplugging appliances to make a statement about climate change. Many cities around the country are also getting involved; the Golden Gate bridge in San Francisco will be dark tonight from 8-9 PM. I encourage all of you to join us in turning off your lights tonight so that we can help save the planet for Baby Pope and the rest of her and future generations.

Chicago is the flagship city for the US. I hope our relatives in Chicago are planning on participating. I think the Hancock Building might be dark.
