Tonight at 8:30pm local time, the Space Needle will go dark along with many businesses and homes across Seattle. And the entire globe. Because it’s Earth Hour!
There’s no need to fret when the city goes dark tonight as people shut off non-essential lights. The dark won’t be cause by tsunami or earthquake or oil spill or wind storm or flood or even nuclear fallout. No, the Earth Hour movement is a call to action on climate change, supported by the World Wildlife Fund.
In case it’s been a while, here are some things you can do without the lights on.
- Watch the Seattle skyline disappear from Gas Works Park
- Act out War of the Worlds by flashlight
- Plan to write a future Wallyhood post
- Have a weenie roast
- Make fire pit pizza
- Have a backyard cookout
- Make smores
- Host a drum circle
- Pretend it is so dark you don’t realize you are pouring amaretto into a Dick’s chocolate milkshake
- Resume normal activities via smartphone
- Get nekkid
- Get busy
