Earth Hour

Earth Hour is a worldwide movement for the planet organized by the World Wildlife Fund. The event is held worldwide annually encouraging individuals, communities, households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights for one hour, from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. on the last Saturday in March, as a symbol for their commitment to the planet. The goal is to get as many individuals and businesses as possible to turn off their lights for one hour to raise awareness about climate change and demonstrate that people are ready to take personal action. 

 At Bayview Hill ES, our "Earth Hour" is from 2pm to 3pm today.  All essential lights will be turned off as well as unused monitors and computers.  

On Saturday March 28 from 8:30 to 9:30pm, take this opportunity to spend time with family and friends celebrating Earth Hour. Find creative ways to spend an hour in the dark. For more information and ideas visit wwf Canada.  Let's all take action to bring awareness to conserving energy.
