Millions plan to flip switch Saturday; Millions of U.S. homes, 2,200 businesses such as Walgreens and 45 national landmarks including Seattle's Space Needle will go dark for an hour Saturday night to draw attention to global warming.

Clary, AFP/Getty Images "It reflects the conviction of people around the world that climate change is real, and we need to do something about it," says Carter Roberts, chief executive officer of the World Wildlife Fund, which started Earth Hour in Sydney, Australia, in 2007. The annual event has taken off since then. Last year, the group says, 4,000 cities turned off lights in official buildings in 87 countries, including 318 U.S. cities. It estimates 80 million Americans participated. This year, 30 states (up from eight last year) plan to flip the light switch in governors' mansions and other public buildings. Among monuments and other landmarks taking part: the Empire State Building, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Las Vegas Strip, Niagara Falls and the Willis Tower, formerly the Sears Tower, in Chicago. "As stewards of our national parks, we want to be visible leaders," says Navnit Singh, spokesman of South Dakota's Mount Rushmore National Memorial, participating for the first time.
