1. Wide of New York’s Empire State Building switching off lights to mark Earth Hour
STORYLINE:
New York’s Empire State Building switched off its lights and joined the global campaign to mark Earth Hour.
It’s an annual event to raise awareness about issues affecting the environment, mainly climate change.
The Arc de Triomphe in Paris, St. Peter’s Square in the Vatican and the London Eye were among the monuments shrouded in darkness on Saturday evening.
India Gate’s lights were dimmed in the capital New Delhi.
Monuments and official buildings in the Portuguese capital Lisbon also joined the global movement by turning off their lights to call for a more sustainable planet.
This year, the Earth Hour movement asked for a global switch off at 20:30 locally.
