More than 1,000 cities in over 80 countries observed Earth Hour 2009 on Saturday March 28th, as homes, office towers and landmarks turned off their lights for an hour starting at 8.30 pm local time to raise awareness about climate change and the threat from rising greenhouse gas emissions.
Check out this page and look at the beautiful images of our great cities when the lights got dimmed. I think most look more beautiful in the natural light.
I think it was a great idea to raise awareness and to show that we can indeed turn out the lights ourselves if we want. We don't have to wait until they are turned off for us.
