Earth Hour 2010 Recap

With its 4^th year under its belt, Earth Hour welcomed another 34 countries, totalling 121 countries, turning to the dark side on Saturday night. The greatest result was not so much the energy saved, but the conversations that were held all around the world. According to WWF, the Earth Hour organizers, it’s all about awareness of the need to conserve energy on a daily basis.

 The AusPen community gets ‘conversations for conservation’. The AusPen is a conversation piece, whether in pitching the product to your office’s purchasing department, or in explaining the environmental, health and cost benefits to students and colleagues. Thanks to all the AusPen advocates for spreading the word and working for conservation.
