As part of the Earth Hour program in Malate Church, volunteers from
the community and the environment group Greenpeace light up candles and display an LED
(light emitting diode) installation, powered by solar electricity,
spelling the words “Renewable Energy. Energy Efficiency” to highlight
the need for an ‘Energy Revolution’ to call for solutions to climate
change. Greenpeace is using the opportunity during this year’s Earth
Hour to call attention to the need for commitment from political
leaders to support the massive shift from dependence on climate
change-causing fossil fuel to renewable energy and energy efficiency
technologies.
