Local Action for a Sustainable Tomorrow

Earth Hour: See the light by going dark
Want to see the difference you can make? Join Earth Hour March 29 by turning off your lights from 8 to 9 pm and urge your friends, neighbors, businesses and government agencies to join this international demonstration, too.
Last year, Sydney, Australia turned off its lights for an hour  and energy use dropped 10.2 percent. Other nations are joining the global action to give Earth an hour off while dramatizing the impact of human activities.  How much can we save by switching off unessential lights?
