Date: 29th March 2008
Venue: our home
Nelson was doing internet surfing..... suddenly.........
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nelson yelled very loudly!!!!!!! He discovered that the Google's
background has turned to black colour.
He refreshed the page and it's still black.......He thought that
there's problem with the computer..............
Later only he realized that they purposely made it black in order
to promote the Earth Hour concept.
Earth hour is an international event that asks households and
businesses to turn off their lights and non-essential electrical appliances
for one hour on the evening of 29 March at 8 pm local time until
9 pm to promote electricity conservation and thus lower carbon
emissions. It may also help reduce light polution in 2008, coincides
with the beginning of National Dark Sky Week in the USA.
