In March Mary Porter called on students across the ACT to turn off their lights during Earth Hour.

“There are many things schools can do for School Earth Hour,” Mary said. “Students can turn off their computers while staff members can turn off
Photocopiers.”

As Earth Hour 2009 took place on a Saturday 28 March schools were not able to participate directly, so the Australian Sustainable Schools Initiative (AuSSI) ACT encouraged them to take part in the inaugural ACT School Earth Hour, between 11am and 12pm.
