Apparently 8:30 tomorrow evening marks an event called “Earth Hour,” in which people all over the planet turn off their lights for an hour to reduce energy consumption and the resulting pollution. Penn State is getting involved by turning off the lights of some of its showcase buildings, including Old Main and the IST Building. The Penn State sites are in good company—the Empire State Building and the Eiffel Tower are also taking part.
