Lights out at Google.com homepage

If you've visited the Google website today, you'll see that the familiar white screen of the well-known search engine has been turned black.  This is an effort on Google's part to raise awareness about Earth Hour.  This focus of the effort is to raise awareness of worldwide energy conservation efforts.  Today, Earth Hour is asking people around the world to turn off their lights from 8pm - 9pm in their local time zone.  Cities around the world are planning events in order to show their commitment to energy conservation.
