How much carbon dioxide will be saved during the event?
In 2007 we measured how much energy saved during Earth Hour in Sydney and achieved a reduction of 10.2% (more than doubled our target of 5%). But the main aim of the campaign is to continue to be energy efficient beyond Earth Hour, individually making small actions everyday, in order to reduce our carbon footprint, and to influence governments to agree to deep cuts in emissions through a global agreement in Copenhagen in 2009.
