It started in Sydney, Australia in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour. In 2008 the message had grown into a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights. Global landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Rome’s Colosseum, the Sydney Opera House and the Coca Cola billboard in Times Square all stood in darkness.
In 2009, the goal is to expand the movement to 1 billion people. What are you doing on March 28, 2009?
Me? I'll be organizing my friends into a massive "dark event". Drinks, food and one hour of complete darkness. Are you in?
