On the 31st of March 2007, 2.2 million Australians switched off their lights in order to take action against global warming. On the 29th of March 2008, a hundred million people in more than 88 countries joined this impressive movement.
WWF is behind this highly respected global action, which is the largest global climate change initiative. The secret of its worldwide success is to be found in the simplicity of the action - switching off the lights for an hour. The impacts of such an action can be considerable when the world works together for a greener future.
On March 27th, 2010, at 08:30pm Bangkok Time, the Grand Palace in Bangkok, the Bosphorus bridge (for the first time) and other well known landmarks will disappear into the darkness for an hour. Take action and have some fun - show your support and create your own virtual lantern on the Earth Hour website.
Throughout the week, we will be sharing some 'green tips' on our FanPage and other quick facts about The Earth Hour organization. Speacial measure that we at Plaza Athenee Bangkok, A Royal Meridien, have taken on the 27th of March, 2010, will be communicated to you shortly after.
