Three treesGreen in Gwinnett is encouraging energy-conscious Gwinnettians to turn off their lights on Saturday, March 28, 2009 at 8:30 pm in recognition of “Earth Hour 2009:”

“Earth Hour started in 2007 in Sydney, Australia with 2.2 million homes and businesses turning their lights off for one hour. Only a year later and this event had become a global sustainability movement with up to 50 million people across 35 countries participating. Global landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Rome’s Colosseum and the Coca Cola billboard in Times Square, all stood in darkness, as symbols of hope for a cause that grows more urgent by the hour.”  – Earthhour.org
