Earth Hour

I'm not a super eco-champion or anything. Actually I am anal about turning off lights b/c I don't want to pay a giant electrical bill. But I'm all for a kitchy world power outage!

It started with a question: How can people be inspired to take action on climate change?

The answer: Ask the people of Sydney to turn off their lights for one hour.


With Sydney icons like the Harbour Bridge and Opera House turning their lights off, and unique events such as weddings by candlelight, the world took notice. Inspired by the collective effort of millions of Sydneysiders, many major global cities are joining Earth Hour in 2008, turning a symbolic event into a global movement, where on Mar 29 between 8pm and 9pm, thousands will turn off their lights.
