If you look at the top of this blog, you’ll see a special toolbar. It’s to show I support Earth Hour, which happens this year on March 28th between 8.30pm and 9.30pm.
Earth Hour is an energy-saving initiative to combat the greenhouse effect and protect our environment.
You can find out more at the Earth Hour website.
The message bar at the top of this blog is via a plug-in from the good folk over at Brave New Code. When 8.30pm arrives on March 28th, it will disable my blog for an hour and display a special Earth Hour message instead.
The environment affects us all, and if all it takes to spread the message about Earth Hour is 60 minutes of a blog’s real estate, that’s got to be worth it, no?
If you’re running a self-hosted WordPress blog and want to show your support, you can download the plug-in here.
- Update Monday March 23. If you run a Drupal-powered site, you can download a module here, thanks to Open Concept.
