全世界都在关注:
本活动在去年(2007)由悉尼发起,而今天,"Earth Hour 2008"则属于全世界!
看看去年的"盛况"吧(via):
更多详情:
On March 31 2007, for one hour, Sydney made a powerful statement about the greatest contributor to global warming -- coal-fired electricity -- by turning off its lights. Over 2.2 million Sydney residents and over 2,100 businesses switched off, leading to a 10.2% energy reduction across the city. What began as one city taking a stand against global warming caught the attention of the world.
In 2008, 24 global cities will participate in Earth Hour at 8pm on March 29. Earth Hour is the highlight of a major campaign to encourage businesses, communities and individuals to take the simple steps needed to cut their emissions on an ongoing basis. It is about simple changes that will collectively make a difference -- from businesses turning off their lights when their offices are empty, to households turning off appliances rather than leaving them on standby.
大意:2007年三月31日,悉尼号召当地人为"全球变暖问题"做出贡献。于是有220万居民和2100家企业参与到了这项"还给地球一小时"活动。2008年,有24个城市表示将加入这一活动。就在今晚!
