Major cities and global landmarks will be plunged into darkness as millions of people switch off lights for an hour to protest against climate change. Maybe some of them will watch stars in their cities for the first time.
Earth Hour 2010 takes place on Saturday 27 March at 8.30pm (local time) and is a global call to action to every individual, every business and every community throughout the world. It is a call to stand up, to take responsibility, to get involved and lead the way towards a sustainable future. Iconic buildings and landmarks from Europe to Asia to the Americas will stand in darkness.

Earth Hour was launched in 2007 as a solo event in Sydney.
