Why is there a need to support and get involved with Earth Hour?

SIMPLY BECAUSE OUR FUTURE DEPENDS ON IT!

On March 27, 2010, Earth Hour will continue to raise awareness of climate change issues and be a global call to action to every individual, every business and every community around.

Please show your support by simply turning off your lights at 8:30PM wherever you are or wherever you may be on the planet.

But please bear in mind that there's more to it than just simply switching off your lights for one hour in a year.

This is all about giving yourself a voice for the future of our very own planet and working together in creating a sustainable low carbon future.

It's Showtime!

Turn out your light and show your support.

Show what can be done

Love♥

In Western culture, the practice of assigning PINK to an individual gender began in the 1920s. From then until the 1940s, PINK was considered appropriate for boys because being related to red it was the more masculine and decided color. Since the 1940s, PINK became appropriate for girls.

It has been suggested that females prefer PINK because of a preference for reddish things like ripe fruits and healthy faces.
