Earth-Hour Results

Lighted CandleIn Chicago, lights on more than 200 downtown buildings were dimmed Saturday night, including the stripe of white light around the top of the John Hancock Center. It was reported that red-and-white marquee outside Wrigley Field also went dark. I am unsure of the total impact resulted from yesterday's event. I do believe it was a good cause and am hopeful to have made a contribution in the quest to make a difference. AP reports: 'Earth Hour' in Ireland is being heralded as a success after analysis released by EirGrid shows a reduction in electricity use of about 1.5% yesterday evening.
I took advantage of the candlelit area of my home and snapped some pictures of the beauty of fire.
