3/26 @ 8:30 PM</span><br>
In 2007, 2.2 million people and more than 2,000
businesses turned their lights off for one hour in
Sydney, Australia to take a stand against climate
change. In 2010, a record 128 countries and
territories joined the global display of climate
action.</p>
<p>Tomorrow, <strong>Saturday March 26th</strong>,
at <strong>8:30 PM</strong> (local time), lights
will switch off again around the globe for Earth
Hour, as a pledge of support for the planet and
stopping global warming.</p>

<p>This Earth Hour we want you to go beyond the
hour, so after the lights go back on think about
what else you can do to make a difference.
Together our actions add up.</p>

<p><span class="subTitle">NUCLEAR POWER AND GLOBAL
WARMING</span><br>
To stop global warming, we need a profound shift
in how we generate and consume energy, moving
beyond the burning of fossil fuels. One argument
for nuclear power is that it does not produce
carbon dioxide, but as the recent tragic events in
Japan illustrate, nuclear energy may not represent
a sound, safe alternative.</p>
<p>Recently in <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=1dU8uxe6c32I7BICTZDjhH8FM5Z4oFNv">The
Guardian</a>, Natalie Kopytko, a researcher in
the Environmental Department at the University of
York, explains why climate change may be the
reason we don’t want to shift to nuclear power.
Kopytko stresses that climate change contributes
to a greater frequency of severe weather events
that can cause more nuclear plant emergencies. <a

Power and Global Warming</a>. Their conclusion:
Nuclear power is not the silver bullet for solving
the global warming problem, and a major expansion
of nuclear power in the United States is not
feasible in the near term.</p>

<p><span class="subTitle">ACTION TIP: MEATLESS
MONDAYS</span><br>
The United Nations’ Food and Agriculture
Organization estimates the meat industry generates
nearly one-fifth of the man-made greenhouse gas
emissions, far more than transportation. Reining
in meat consumption at least once a week can help
reduce your carbon footprint and save resources
like water and fossil fuel. Why not try <a
