Turn Off the Lights...Light a Candle: Earth Hour 3.29.08 20:00:00

This Saturday March 29th, 24 global cities will participate in Earth Hour a World Wildlife Foundation initiative to turn off the lights in cities around the world for one hour at 8pm local time.

Created to take a stand against the greatest threat our planet has ever faced, Earth Hour uses the simple action of turning off the lights for one hour to deliver a powerful message about the need for action on global warming.

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 and, this Saturday, a number of Chicago restaurants will participate in Chicago's Earth Hour including Cyrano's Bistrot & Wine Bar, where all lights are going out for the entire evening as they transform the dining room into a festival of candles. Four Seasons Hotel Chicago will also hold a candlelight dinner from 8-11 p.m.

If you're not in the Windy City this weekend, Several Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts are joining in and inviting local patrons and guests to dine by candlelight as an enjoyable and delicious way to observe Earth Hour together.

Earth Hour 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.
