Among classes, meetings and other school stuff, there was no time for World Water Day on Tuesday 22nd, Weather Day on 23rd or to mention Elizabeth Taylor's death and her funeral on Thursday 24th. Today, still Friday 25th marks the 100th anniversary of Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in which 146 people died and 71 were injured. Read here Barack Obama's proclamation.
26th March (this year) is also an important date to observe: Earth Hour 2011. Earth Hour is organised annually on the last Saturday of March by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) to combat climate change. This year over 4,000 cities from 131 countries will turn their lights off during the global event.
If you haven't read what I posted here and here last year, you can do it now and watch the Earth Hour 2011 official video below:
