Pampanga mayor promotes Earth Hour
March 26, 2011
ANGELES CITY — Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan has encouraged Angeleños to participate and support the Earth Hour 60-minute power switch-off Saturday night.
Thousands of cities, towns, and landmarks around the world will start to “go dark” in observance of the project for environmental protection Saturday.
Up to a billion people worldwide are expected to participate in this global voluntary blackout by switching off their lights from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. local time.
“When we turn off our lights, let us use it is as an opportunity to reflect about what we can do to contribute in fighting climate change,” Pamintuan said.
He said the message of the event is really a long-term call against global warming.
“We may not be able to solve climate change overnight, but each step we do makes a difference,” the mayor added.
The Metro Angeles Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inc. (MACCII) is spearheading the local counterpart event at the Nepo Quadrangle. The lights off at the Nepo mall and nearby establishments will highlight the event.
SM Clark signified its intention to join the Earth Hour so shoppers will expect candle lights for an hour inside the mall.
The Earth Hour, organized by the World Wide Fund for Nature, also known as World Wildlife Fund, was started in Australia in 2007 and embraced by the Philippines in 2008.
The event was created to empower people to address climate change via a 60-minute switch-off. Earth Hour 2011 differs from all previous observances by focusing on what citizens can do beyond the switch-off, according to organizers.
With climate change issues becoming more critical, WWF-Philippines aims to go beyond Earth Hour by launching a year-long information and education campaign on climate change for Filipinos, revolving around the themes of energy efficiency, renewable energy and climate adaptation.
The Philippines topped global Earth Hour participation levels for both 2009 and 2010. Ten million Filipinos in 647 towns, cities and municipalities switched off in 2009, while 15 million Filipinos in 1076 towns and cities joined the 2010 switch-off.
