All 50 US States take part in Earth Hour

Posted on 28 March 2010

Washington, US: With the official support of 33 States and Earth Hour being observed in all others and the national capital, the entire US has participated in the global Earth Hour call for effective climate action. South American colossus Brazil also recorded a remarkable surge in participation.

Nations in the Americas joined a wildly successful Earth Hour which when complete will have seen hundreds of millions of people in more than 4000 communities in 126 countries participate – and all of those figures being subject to upward revision.

"Earth Hour sends a clear message that Americans care about their country and the planet. By turning the lights off on pollution and climate change, we will make the switch to a cleaner, safer and more secure world," said Earth Hour US Managing Director Leslie Aun.

Earth Hour in the US enjoyed the support of governors from both sides of the aisle, mayors, state legislators, government officials, business, religious and community leaders, university presidents and teachers.

However, the clock needs a power supply (of some sort) to keep running.
