Earth Hour 2013: Renewable Energy
Earth Hour is on Saturday the 23rd of March, 2013 from 8:30
PM – 9:30 PM
What is Earth Hour?
This year’s theme for Earth Hour is
renewable energy. Participants are encouraged to focus on the type of energy we
use: renewable energy is much cleaner than fossil fuels and works with our
planet instead of against it.
1515/1555 Poydras & the Jones Lang
LaSalle Management Team are working towards A Cleaner Tomorrow! We will be
playing a vital role in Earth Hour 2013 and you can help us Go Beyond the Hour
to have a Cleaner Tomorrow too!
Jones Lang LaSalle buildings across the world are
joining in the effort and will participate in Earth Hour! 1515/1555 plans
to show our support for our planet. We challenge our Tenants and Vendors to
take part in their very own Earth Hour! This is not just to save energy
for an hour, but it’s a change of attitude and lifestyle. If we, along
with billions of others around the world express our concern over our
ecological crisis & climate change and be a bit more environmentally
friendly, the planet will be a much better place during our lives and our
children’s lives.
How do you participate?
At the office…
1st…before
leaving your office March 22nd, please
turn off all unnecessary lights in the office. (Janitorial
will assist in this effort as well by turning off lights as they finish
cleaning on this evening.)
2nd…turn
off your computers, computer screens and printers.
3rd
…turn off any unnecessary office equipment and unplug the transformers.
Did you know that transformer plugs continue to drain power when left plugged
in and not in use?
At home…
1st…do
the same type of things identified above for your office at home.
2nd…go
through each room of your home and see what you can turn off or unplug.
3rd…make
it a party with candle lights, cookouts, crawfish boils and bon fires.
4th…encourage
family, friends and others to take part in Earth Hour 2013.
If you
choose to go “Beyond the Hour” and take action for our planet, don’t forget to
log on to earthhour.org
and tell everyone about it!
Thank you to
everyone who plans to take part—and to everyone who continues to support the
environment to help ensure a sustainable future for our families, our firms and
our planet.
Thanks again,
JLL Management Team
