Earth Day - Before and After

Click on the photos to see the lights fade! BERY NICE!

Quote:
Started in Sydney, Australia in 2007, Earth Hour quickly grew into a global observance. More than 1,000 cities in over 80 countries observed Earth Hour 2009 on Saturday March 28th, as homes, office towers and landmarks turned off their lights for an hour starting at 8.30 pm local time to raise awareness about climate change and the threat from rising greenhouse gas emissions. Collected here are a series of before-and-after photographs - which (starting with the second one below) will fade between "on" and "off" when clicked. Let me state that again, since I know not everyone reads the whole intro here - starting with image #2 below, click on the image to see an animated fade between "on" and "off". This effect requires javascript to be enabled. (17 photos total)

I think the Eiffel Tower one is the craziest, when its lights are off, you can't even tell its there!

TOPEC 03-31-2009 02:07 PM
pretty neat, but funny how some floors r doin the opposite, turning on the lights.

AzNightmare 03-31-2009 02:16 PM
Wow, that's so cool. Took me a while to figure out that you can toggle lights on and off by clicking the images. lol
