When I wrote my post on Earth Hour<\/a> in the wee hours, I did not know that Beth Buczynski would also be covering the topic for her guest post<\/a> at the Ecospheric Blog<\/a>. But I’m glad she did… she brings in some of the political controversy surrounding the event (“Human Achievement Hour,” anyone), and encourages us greenies to stand firm…<\/p>\n

It’s always interesting to see how post from other bloggers (who may or may not know each other) may overlap somewhat… I thought of Jess’ post on optimism<\/a> as I was reading through Beth’s thoughts. I did give our guests a general theme to work with — “Radical Sustainability, Ordinary People” — and they’ve all written some really perceptive posts… but it’s also cool to see how often ideas align.<\/p>\n

We’re still interested in hearing how you might be spending Earth Hour tonight… share your plans with us!<\/p>\n

Thanks to New York City event space<\/a> and gallery rental space Open House Gallery for their pledge to the Blogathon!<\/em><\/p>\n
