Dublin to Go Dark Tonight for Earth Hour 2008

Brandon | March 29, 2008

Tonight, from 8-9pm, Dublin will be participating in the global Earth Hour. 24 major cities around the world are participating this year, including Sydney (where the idea apparently started), Copenhagen, Chicago, Atlanta, and Toronto. Businesses and individuals are being asked to turn off all non-essential lights and appliances for the hour as a way of communicating the need for action against global warming.

    I didn’t see anything about this on RTE. Maybe Kildare doesn’t count but I didn’t see too many houses with the lights off there.

    Slán!
