Earth Hour Blackout 2011

Not heard of it?  Listen up!

From London to Sydney, New York and Singapore, people across the world will be joining together on March 26th to switch off their lights for one hour. The initiative, which began in 2007 in Sydney and is sponsored by WWF, encourages homes, businesses and landmarks in more than 130 participating countries to switch off their lights at 8.30pm on Saturday.



It’s a reminder to us all that we only have one planet Earth and it’s an urgent message that we want to reduce the impact our energy system has on that planet. So, for all my friends and family members living around the globe, let me encourage you to pull out some candles on Saturday and switch off your lights, have a candlelight dinner party, or just eat out under the stars ....
