Earth Hour WWF Home About ... EH 2008 news see the difference you can make Earth Hour 2007 was a Sydney event. Earth Hour 2008 was a global movement Created to take a stand against the greatest threat our planet has ever faced, Earth Hour uses the simple action of turning off the lights for one hour to deliver a powerful message about the need for action on global warming. embed this video About Earth Hour On March 31 2007, for one hour, Sydney made a powerful statement about the greatest contributor to global warming – coal-fired electricity – by turning off its lights. Over 2.2 million Sydney residents and over 2,100 businesses switched off, leading to a 10.2% energy reduction across the city. What began as one city taking a stand against global warming caught the attention of the world. In 2008, 24 global cities participated in Earth Hour at 8pm on March 29. Earth Hour is the highlight of a major campaign to encourage businesses, communities and individuals to take the simple steps needed to cut their emissions on an ongoing basis. It is about simple changes that will collectively make a difference – from businesses turning off their lights when their offices are empty, to households turning off appliances rather than leaving them on standby.

The Earth The Earth is certainly the most familiar planet, though it has only been a few hundred years since we fully realized it was a planet. We begin our study of objects in the Solar System with the Earth because it is interesting in its own right, and it provides a test of many observing techniques that we wish to use for other objects in the Solar System. Applet requires Java-capable browser The Earth is, at least by human standards, a beautiful planet, as the following images indicate.

Earth is teeming with fish, mammals, birds, reptiles, insects, and even some oddball "extremophiles" life forms that live in extreme environments like deep inside ice at the poles or around hot springs at the bottom of the ocean. Today, the diversity of life on Earth, and its hardiness at adapting to extreme environments, prompt many scientists to think life could thrive elsewhere in our solar system, or on planets and moons around other stars in our Milky Way galaxy. But it was only in the sixteenth century, around the time of Copernicus, that people began to see Earth as a planet at all akin to the "wanderers" that were seen crossing the night sky against the stable background of stars. Since then, telescopic and probe-based studies of other bodies in the solar system have put our remarkable home into a broader context. We know that Earth is the largest of the "terrestrial" planets in our solar system the four rocky planets close to the Sun.

Considering what it does, Virgil can call it anything he likes:-) Here's an example using a previously created Google Mymap (in a separate window, as it generates a plugin warning popup for Mac users).

59. Earth -- From Eric Weisstein's World Of Astronomy The solar day (i.e., the time to complete a rotation taking into account that the earth is also advancing in its orbit and so reaches the same orientation http://scienceworld.wolfram.com/astronomy/Earth.html

Solar System Planets Earth Planet Earth Earth The Earth mass is kg. The Earth's average orbital distance from the Sun is m, a distance known as the astronomical unit Earth's only natural satellite is the Moon , sometimes called Luna. The solar day (i.e., the time to complete a rotation taking into account that the Earth is also advancing in its orbit and so reaches the same orientation relative to the Sun in slightly less time than its rotational period in inertial space) is 24 hours, or 86,400 seconds. The sidereal day , which is the Earth's rotational period relative to the "fixed" stars, is 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4.1 seconds (or 86164.10 seconds). Earth's average surface temperature is 287 K. It is at perihelion on January 2, at a distance 3% closer than aphelion in July. Climatic changes are closely linked to temperature variations. A lowering of temperature creates more ice which increases albedo and reflects more radiation, reinforcing the cold. Cooling, however, decreases the quantity of water vapor in the atmosphere, producing fewer clouds and a lower albedo This, in turn, leads to a cancellation of the cold. The net effect of these processes is not understood.
