Niagara Falls is joining the global movement for Earth Hour by encouraging residents and businesses to switch off non-essential lights from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. tomorrow.
The City will also dim non-essential lighting at its facilities, while the nightly illumination of Niagara Falls will pause in support of the cause.
Last year, over 410,000 hours were given to our planet by supporters in over 190 countries and territories. The world’s first Earth Hour in Sydney, Australia, saw more than 2.2 million people turn off their lights for one hour to show a climate-sceptic government that people were concerned about climate change. Today, more than 50-million people take part in Earth Hour.
