John Lennon asked us to, "Imagine all the people living life in peace." Now [his former band-mate Ringo Starr](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-beatles-x-crocs-classic-clog) wants to make that a reality, even for a short moment in time.

Starr has taken to the web through his official [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/red-nose-day) channel and asked everyone to stop and ask for *Peace and Love* at noon on July 7th. It does not matter where you live, how old, what sex, religion or race you are. Simply take a moment for peace at noon.

According to Starr, "Perhaps for just one moment we can have the whole world thinking of Peace and Love!"

Even though it's only symbolic, I think its pretty cool. After all, the recent [Earth Hour](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/earth-therapeutics) did not save the environment, but educated many about important social and environmental issues.
