HOLLAND, MI (WHTC) – You’re invited to join members of the community in Holland and around the world for Earth Hour 2017.
Earth Hour is a charitable organization based out of Singapore with the mission of uniting people to protect the planet. Take the pledge online and then you’re asked to change your energy use for at least one hour on Saturday, March 25 from 8:30-9:30 p.m.
The City of Holland suggests sitting by candle light and turning off non-essential lighting around the house and outside. Businesses, schools and churches are also encouraged to participate.
At 3 p.m. at Graves Hall on the campus of Hope College you’re invited to a free showing of the documentary The City Dark. The New York times gave this documentary about light pollution high marks. The film explores what our increasing inability to see the night sky means for us philosophically.
