| If 10,000 Chicago Biters turn off a single 100-watt bulb for Earth Hour, we'll save enough energy to power 341 homes for a year. | | | | In addition to the light bulb, Thomas Edison patented another 1,092 inventions, including a tattoo machine and a poured-concrete house. | | | | | | | | The Bite That’s the night time…in Chicago. Sure, there are plenty of good things you can do in the dark, but that’s not what we’re talking about (this time). The World Wildlife Fund and biz leaders selected our lovely town as a flagship U.S. city for Earth Hour 2008, an international event this Sat. to raise awareness about climate change. Join cities across the globe, from Bangkok to Tel Aviv to Sydney, Australia (see photo) and simply turn out your lights for an hour. Here in Daley country, look for skyscrapers and attractions like Navy Pier’s ferris wheel to go dark, and nightspots like the Merch Mart’s swanky restaurant Bluprint to go candlelight. You can still tease and squeeze, just don’t leave the light on. | | Wanna Try? | Earth Hour, Mar. 29, 8 p.m CDT. | | LIKE THIS BITE?
