Take a stand against global warming: Join Earth Hour and turn off your lights for one hour at 8pm on March 29, 2008.

Dublin is the first city in Ireland to embrace the spirit of the global campaign of Earth Hour 2008. The campaign uses the simple action of turning off the lights for one hour to deliver a powerful message about the need for action on global warming.

At 8pm on the 29 March 2008, millions of people in some of the world's major capital cities will unite and switch off for Earth Hour.

Earth Hour gives life to the belief that one person, one home, one business; one city for just one hour can make the difference necessary to turn the tide against climate change. As an American politician and activist John W. Gardner once said, “The cynic says, ‘One man can’t do anything.’ I say, ‘Only one man can do anything.”.

Real progress on climate change will take a commitment from us all.
