Bacău celebrated Earth Hour with a small public display on "Tricolorului Square" Saturday night, 26th of March, 2011. There was a nice act put together by "In The Spot", a local artist's group and, of course, we've switched off at half past eight PM.
More on Earth Hour here.
I would rather have lit up extra bulbs in protest at the coming ban on regular incandescents ;-) - there is no energy shortage for electricity justifying telling what paying consumers can use, especially since the overall energy savings are less than 1%, also from US Dept of Energy and EU institutional statistics ( ceolas.net/#li171ax ) .
I'm just the one snapping the photos :) As for the electricity shortage...I really don't know. This is for raising awareness of sustainability on a broad view IMHO.
