Earth Hour; Everywhere: March 28th

Join many of Australia and the world’s most recognisable landmarks in switching off their lights for an hour, including the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Melbourne’s Federation Square, Paris’ Eiffel Tower, Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro and the world’s tallest tower - the CN Tower in Toronto, Canada…
Some of Australia’s favourite big icons, including the Big Banana, the Big Pineapple and the Big Merino, have signed up to go dark for Earth Hour 2009 - Saturday 28 March at 8.30pm.

“In 2009 Earth Hour aims to reach 1 billion people in over 1,000 cities worldwide creating a strong visual mandate, a vote, from people around the world to say ‘we must deal with climate change,” said WWF-Australia CEO Greg Bourne.
