Climate change is happening all around us and its pace is accelerating. From melting glaciers to increasingly intense weather patterns, climate change is already impacting life on Earth.
Since we are closed on Saturday, on Friday, March 26, 2010 at 10:00 a.m. local time, The Goddard School of Cedar Park and our students will be taking part in what promises to be an amazing and inspiring event in the fight against climate change: Earth Hour. Sponsored by World Wildlife Fund (WWF), Earth Hour asks individuals, businesses, government leaders and others to turn out all non-essential lighting for one hour as a bold statement of collective concern about climate change. Please visit Goddard Earth Hour for more details.
Earth Hour is the largest event of its kind in the world. In 2009, nearly one billion people from 4,100 cities in 87 countries turned out their lights, as well as international landmarks including the Golden Gate Bridge, Empire State Building, Eiffel Tower and Great Pyramids, and the city skylines of Las Vegas, Hong Kong and Tel Aviv.
We’d like to encourage you to join us in this important effort. Participation is free and easy:
1. Sign up at EarthHour.org
Show your support, find out what Earth Hour events are happening near you and get tips on organizing fun events in your community.
2. Spread the Word
Invite your friends and family to join the movement, become a fan on Facebook and post a link to EarthHour.org on your profile page.
3. Turn off the Lights
Turn off your non-essential lighting at 8:30 p.m. local time on Saturday, March 27.
To get a better sense of the magnitude of the effort, please take a moment to watch WWF’s video about Earth Hour: www.myearthhour.org/news/media.
Our school has long believed in operating responsibly. In the days leading up to Earth Hour, we will take an even closer look at actions we can take throughout the school to operate more efficiently, waste less and reduce our environmental footprint.
Please join us as we turn out and take action! Contact us at 512.258.5292 if you’d like more details on our scheduled Earth Hour event on March 26th!
