Today you have a choice of participating in Earth Hour , the global effort of voting against climate change, by switching off all your lights between 8:30-9:30pm. Earth Hour started in Sydney in 2007 when approximately 2.2 million homes and businesses joined in by switching of their lights for one hour. With the success of this campaign it is estimated that 1 billion people worldwide will participate in Earth Hour this year.
If you take any photos during Earth Hour then you should consider loading them to this group on Flickr called Earth Hour 2009 Global .
The beautiful light pictured in this image, titled ‘Phiball’, was made by Andrew Last and was featured in the exhibition Smart works: design and the handmade , held at the Powerhouse Museum in 2007.
