Shoreline celebrates Earth Hour

Once again, all non-essential City Hall lights will be turned off during Earth Hour on Saturday, March 29. Since 2007, World Wildlife Fund’s Earth Hour event has inspired individuals, communities and businesses around the world to turn off their lights for one hour to help protect our planet from climate change. Although the City models this type of energy efficiency year-round in its buildings, all non-essential City Hall lights will be turned off during Earth Hour.

Awareness of our environmental challenges and the commitment to act sustainably have increased to the point that people in 7,000 cities in 154 countries on all seven continents participated in the 2013 event.

Shoreline invites all residents and businesses to help make a difference by turning off all non-essential lights from 8:30pm to 9:30pm Pacific time on Saturday, March 29.
