Event Description
On March 30 at 8:30 p.m., local time, World Wildlife Fund is asking individuals, businesses, governments and organizations around the world to turn off their lights for one hour -- Earth Hour -- to make a global statement of concern about climate change and to demonstrate their commitment to finding solutions. Turn out. Take action. Be part of this historic event.
We at 29 Gifts decided to join this effort, the largest voluntary action for the environment. This event started in one city in 2007 and has grown to include over 130 nations and more than 5100 cities. We want to be part of building a movement for change. We would like to go one more step and make this special hour computer, phone, special devices and TV free. Light a candle and enjoy the dark.
Join us for this special hour and enjoy an unique way to end our month of Honoring the Earth.
