Earth Hour 2010: Before & During Lights Out Around the World
Beginning in Sydney, Australia three years ago, Earth Hour has grown into a global observance. States, large organizations and individual people observed Earth Hour 2010 on Saturday March 27th, as homes, office towers and landmarks turned off their lights for an hour starting at 8.30 pm local time to raise awareness about climate change and the threat from rising greenhouse gas emissions.

The Boston Globe has collected a very cool series of before-and-after photographs from this year - which will fade between “on” and “off” when clicked. Many iconic landmarks and cityscapes from around the world are featured making it a great Bucket List for those of us who ♡ Travel!
