Earth Hour

  • A global initiative created by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to symbolize that each one of us working together, can make a difference on climate change.

  • The largest climate event in history where millions of people around the world (over 36 million Americans alone participated in 2008) will turn off their lights for one hour to demand action on climate crisis.

  • Earth Hour 2009 takes place on Saturday, March 28, 2009 at 8:30 p.m.

  • Joining other major US cities including Chicago, Dallas, Las Vegas, New York and San Francisco etc. The City of Los Angeles will turn out the lights of local landmarks such as the City Hall, Music Center, Disney Hall, US Bank Tower, Griffith Observatory, LAX Pylons and more!

  • Earth Hour is not a black out. All participants are encouraged to turn off all non-essential lighting. The event itself will not lower our carbon footprint; rather it sends a signal to world leaders and politicians that we as individuals, organizations and communities demand action for climate change.
