First shots of Sydney with the lights out, lower picture. Not as big a contrast to the picture above as I would have expected.....
If there is one reason why Toronto went so nutso over Earth Hour, it is due to the unwavering support and continuous promotion by the Toronto Star. The Saturday Star (our big paper of the week, because historically papers did not print on Sunday in Canada) is wall-to-wall Earth Hour, from the food to the entertainment to even the wheels section. They really do deserve congratulations for this incredible effort at increasing awareness of environmental issues. See their extraordinary Earth Hour coverage at ::The Star
