Earth Hour this Saturday March 28 8:30-9:30

From SeattleCan.org, in partnership with World Wildlife Fund:

Turn Off the Lights for Earth Hour

Get ready to join the world and celebrate Earth Hour, Saturday, March 28 from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. This year, Earth Hour aims to have 1 billion people switch off their lights, as a global call to action and a darkening stance against global warming. Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007 when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour. Last year, more joined in, with 50 million people flicking the switch. Like last year, the City of Seattle will be turning off the lights in our facilities and will proclaim the day “Earth Hour Day.”


Join in, turn the lights off and recognize Earth Hour with, hopefully, billions of people across the globe. Learn more about Earth Hour.
