Earth Hour this weekend, 28th March. Will you join in?

Earth Hour is a global event that has people turning off their lights in their homes for one hour and takes place on the last Saturday of March from 8:30 to 9:30 PM local time.

This gesture began in Sydney, Australia in 2007 and it has grown into a worldwide environmental movement for our planet.
Join in with Earth Hour if you can as this movement encourages us to unplug from the noise of daily life. Hopefully collectively we can help drive meaningful change.
