Earth Hour: Your Commitment Beyond

You probably heard of Earth Hour, an international effort that took place last Saturday, March 28th to save energy and raise awareness about global warming. Earth Hour counted with the participation of millions of individuals, thousands of cities, and many governments committed to taking action on global warming. More than a gesture of energy-saving, Earth Hour was symbolic because it demonstrated a global will to enter a new future powered by energy efficiency, renewable energy, and more sustainable lifestyles. In effect, it showed a universal commitment by people to move human society towards sustainability.

Among the landmarks that participated in Earth Hour are:

• The Great Pyramids in Egypt
• The Acropolis in Athens, Greece
• The Empire State Building in New York, USA
• The UN headquarters in New York, USA
• The Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
• Wembley Stadium in London, UK
• The Bird’s Nest Stadium, the Water Cube, Ling Long Tower and Pangu Plaza in Beijing, China
• The Oriental Pearl Tower and the 492m high Shanghai World Financial Center, in Shanghai, China
• The Reserve Bank of India, the Air India buildings, and Indian Tourism Development Corporation’s flagship Ashok Hotel, in India
• The World Bank in Washington D.C.
• Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
• St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, Italy
• The Big Ben in London, U.K.
