Earth Hour is an annual event held on the third Saturday of March that calls on everyone in the world to turn off their lights for one hour as show of solidarity to take action against global warming. The goal for this third year of Earth Hour is one billion participants - which will include everyone at Common Roots Cafe.The ONE Campaign and Oxfam are concerned with climate change because it's impacting the world's poor first and worst. Environmental sustainability and ending poverty are part of the Millinenium Development Goals. You can learn more about this human face of climate change and how you can take action from ONE Twin Cities and Oxfam Action Corps before and during Earth Hour at Common Roots. Hope to see you there!
