Hi my name is Amber. I live in a small town right outside of Lake Geneva, WI. I was inspired to make this profile after I read a short article on Yahoo!, about what the people over in Rome, and Paris, did on Thursday February 1, 2007. They all joined together, in an environmental movement to show solidarity with French activists, who asked citizens to turn off their lights and other illuminated devices such as TV’s and computers in a show of unity before Friday’s release in Paris of a major report on climate change.After I read this report, I thought to myself what a brilliant idea. We need to be doing these things here in the U.S. We need to come together to take a stand and show how serious we are taking this issue of climate change as well. I believe that if we all came together and did this same movement we will really be opening a lot of eyes to a lot of people.I am here to ask people to join me in this Environmental Movement “Lights Out America†on June 28, 2007 at 8:00 p.m. central time (8:00 eastern, mountain, and western time so it will be dark wherever you may be) for 1 HOUR! I would like to get this spread around to all the 50 states and at the time we all turn off our lights and all illuminated devices, TV’s, computers, alarm clocks, radios, kitchen appliances, etc.My goal is to have 2,000 more friends by June 28, 2007. Please help make this happen by telling all of your friends and family.This will be our 2nd Lights Out event! Our first event took place on March 29, 2007 @ 6:30 central for 10 minutes. We had quite a few participants that joined. We were able to meet a goal of 1,000 myspace friends by this date.If you would like to participate please e-mail me at [email protected] with your full name, city & state you live in, how you heard of this and why this is important to you.If anyone has any ideas of other things we can do and other ways to get the word out there please let me know. I would also like to pass out flyers about this movement, but I am still looking for a company to partner with to donate there products. If you know of any who would be willing to participate please let me know. You can reach me through e-mail on myspace or at [email protected] look at the other things on this page, offering education about Global Warming.
