World landmarks go dark for Earth Hour

“The Empire State Building, the Eiffel Tower and the Kremlin—along with a slew of other landmarks around the world—went dark to draw attention to climate change.  In a symbolic show of support for the planet, people across the continents switched off their lights for 60 minutes—all at 8:30 pm local time—to make ‘Earth Hour.’  In bustling New York, that’s exactly what happened when the Empire State Building pulled the plug on its nighttime brilliance.  In Paris, the city of light, the Eiffel Tower turned off its illumination—but only for five minutes due to security reasons.”
