When : March 28, 2009 / 8:30 PM
Where : Philippines and all over the World
Who : Earthlings
How : It's as simple as a flick of the switch.The lights will go off for one hour on March 28 at 8:30 pm in key cities in the Philippines and all over the world. It's called Earth Hour - and it will be humanity's largest call for environmental action.
Cool Eh! Just one hour of no lights, aircon and video games. It won't hurt that much. But the result is a tremendous attention-grabbing to all citizens of the world to start caring for the Earth.
Earth Hour 2009 aims to reach one billion people in 1000 cities all over the world. To help reach this goal, a global sign-up campaign and competition is again being launched worldwide. Last year, the Philippines ranked 9th in terms of total sign-ups. All Filipinos are urged to sign up at Earth Hour's global website: www.earthhour.org. Over 1000 cities in 80 countries have now pledged support.
Earth Hour Philippines 2009 hopes to involve 10 million Filipinos and 500 businesses in key cities and towns throughout the country.
Remember! The first step is just turning off a light.

Nice idea and nice video.
I will turn off the lights of my house on 28th March.
Thanks for the visit Guido. It's just one hour (turning your lights off). But I believe it will make a difference.
