Earth Hour Toronto, 2008
Last year, Sydney Australia blazed an eco-trail by encouraging people to turn out their lights for just one hour, on March 31. More than million people and 2,100 business tuned in and turned off for an amazing result: in just one hour, the city’s energy consumption was cut by more than 10 per cent (which would be like taking 48,000 cars off the road for a year!). This year, it’s a world-wide thing (in 20 cities across six continents), with Toronto leading the way in Canada. So on March 29, at 8 p.m., join millions of people and turn your lights off for one hour. Easy peasy. (Bonus: everyone looks gorgeous by candlelight!)
