Going dark for climate change
26/03/2010
You might need to bring a torch if you visit any of our sites this Saturday….
Why?!?
Well, maybe it won’t be that dark, but we will be turning off all the signs and non-essential lighting on all our sites across the UK and Ireland to show our support for Earth Hour. Organised by WWF, Earth Hour aims to get people, businesses and communities around the World thinking about climate change and take steps to be responsible for the future. In 2009, over 4,000 cities, in 88 countries were involved, reaching a whopping 1 billion people worldwide.
To get our employees on board, we are giving out candles for them to take home, and staff who sign up to Earth Hour on the WWF website will have the chance to win environmentally-friendly prizes like an energy efficient pamper hamper, a candle-lit food hamper or a wind up radio.
We are really passionate about this, and it fits in with our wider, global commitment as WWF Climate Savers members, to reduce carbon emissions by 10% by the end of 2010.
We’re hoping that lots of other businesses and individuals will switch off and join us this Saturday to make this year’s Earth Hour even more successful than the last! Sign up today at http://www.earthhour.org/Homepage.aspx
