The goal of this project, organized by the World Wide Fund of Nature, is to achieve greater energy efficiency by encouraging households and businesses to [[Reduce Expenses|turn off non-essential lights]] and electrical appliances for an hour. It is hoped through this to continuously raise awareness among all communities about the impact of energy use on [[Take Action to Reduce Global Warming|climate change]] and how our own energy practices can be far more efficient. | |
