Earth Hour

Posted: 03/27/2008
Cities all over the world are participating in Earth Hour 2008 Campaign making a truly Global effort. Started last year by the World Wildlife Fund of Australia, the objective was for everyone in Sydney to turn off the lights for one hour. On March 31, 2007, an estimated 2.2 million people and more than 2,000 businesses in Sydney participated. Such prominent places such as the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge went dark. As a result, Sydney ?s energy usage dropped 10 percent.
