On Saturday 27 March 2010, couple hours before the Earth Hour, people of Melbourne got together in Federation Square for the screening of "Home", a documentary by Yann Arthus-Bertrand featuring unique footage from over 50 countries, seen from the air. Then at 8.30 pm, we watched the Melbourne City skyline go "lights off" for an hour. Other entertainment for the night was provided by Hissy Loco on ukulele and fire twirling by Concentrate.

Full Description

Earth Hour is a global event organized by WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature, also known as World Wildlife Fund) and is held on the last Saturday of March annually, asking households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights and other electrical appliances for one hour to raise awareness towards the need to take action on climate change.

Earth Hour 2010 was reportedly the biggest Earth Hour yet. It was held from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. local time, March 27. More than 4,300 cities and towns in 126 countries celebrated the event.
