[SEMCO] Falmouth joins 'Earth Hour' lights-out event

[Laishona Vitelli]

Falmouth Earth Hour: A powerful, symbolic message uniting Falmouth in a 
global cause. 8:00 pm, March 29, 2008.

Earth Hour is a global event created to symbolize that each of us, 
working together, can make a positive impact on climate
change--no matter who we are or where we live. Starting at 8 pm local 
time on March 29, 2008, individuals, communities and
businesses will "turn off the lights" in cities around the world for one 
hour. This simple act will not only heighten
awareness of the impacts of climate change on our world, but also 
inspire individuals and businesses to take practical
action to reduce their own carbon footprint.  www.earthhour.org

Earth Hour flagship cities in the U.S.--Chicago, Atlanta, Phoenix and 
San Francisco--are leading the way. Other participating U.S. cities 
include Denver, Miami, Charlotte, Martha's Vineyard and now Falmouth, 
MA. Major global cities are joining Earth Hour in 2008, turning a 
symbolic event into a global movement. Among those switching off will be 
the tallest building in North America, the 110 story high Sears Tower in 
Chicago.
