In response to the 2011 Earth Hour campaign, Binh Duong province saved 13,400 kWh of power and will further reduce power consumption during the 2012 Earth Hour campaign, which falls on March 31.
The above result came from provincial Department of Environmental and Natural Resource’s efforts in speeding up the propaganda work via mass media to raise public awareness of the significance of the campaign.
It is known that Earth Hour is an initiative of the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) that began in 2007, aiming to call on individuals, businesses and governments to turn off lights for one hour to demonstrate their interest in fighting climate change and promoting sustainability for a better environment.
