Earth Hour is THIS Saturday (March 29th, 2014).
So what's the deal?
The World Wildlife Federation (WWF) came up with the brilliant idea to help unite people across the globe in an effort to raise awareness and protect our little planet.
All you have to do is turn out the lights and unplug a few of your electronics on Saturday between 8:30pm and 9:30pm.
This year, Spiderman is the official superhero ambassador of Earth Hour.

It's all in the name of name of conservation baby! So what the heck are you supposed to do in the dark for an hour? Leave it to the people at Durex Condoms to take advantage of the hour of darkness to encourage us all to enjoy a little rub & tickle. Here's the video they're released to promote their
"Turn Off To Turn On' campaign.

To find out what you can do to make a difference, even if it's jut a teeny tiny one, head on over to the Earth Hour Website.

Enjoy.

I came across this shop purely by accident and I must say, I was BEYOND impressed.
It's this little store called The Soap Dispensary.
If you're thinking that this is some sort of super girly and frilly kind of place, you're wrong.
Here's the deal:

"The Soap Dispensary is a refill store specializing in premium household soaps, cleaners and personal care products. Customers can reuse containers to be refilled at our store, keeping single-use plastic packaging out of landfills, watersheds and wasteful recycling systems."

And nope, it's not the cheapy stuff either. It's high quality, environmentally friendly and allergy-friendly products, most of them being Canadian. CooooOOOooool!!!

I know what you're thinking and the answer is no, I'm not getting paid to say this. I just genuinely think this is a brilliant idea that's not only environmentally friendly, but also local.
Me Likey.
