SINGAPORE: Earth Hour came to Singapore, and was observed for an hour from 8.30pm on Saturday.
The environmental campaign saw record participation from 350 organisations, who pledged to switch off their lights in their bid to help save the planet.
At the flagship event in Singapore was Earth Hour’s global super hero ambassador Spider-Man.
Lending star power to the celebrations were the cast of the “The Amazing Spider-Man 2″ — Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone and Jamie Foxx.
They helped to switch off the lights at over 60 iconic structures across the Marina Bay skyline.
Members of the public too joined in the fun while learning about the use of sustainable energy sources.
In the activity, Energy Floors, they showed off their dance moves on a huge mat that converts kinetic energy from footwork into electricity.
Joining other organisations in supporting Earth Hour was Singapore’s leading media company MediaCorp.
Bright digital screens at malls and bus stops were switched off from 8.30pm to 9.30pm.
It is part of an initiative by MediaCorp’s outdoor advertising arm, OOH Media, to show its concern for the environment, and encourage the public to save electricity.
OOH media has over 70 digital screens in bus shelters and malls in Singapore.
Malls supporting the initiative include ION Orchard, JCube and The Star Vista.
