Don't Forget Earth Hour is this Weekend!

ComEd has joined with the City of Chicago, World Wildlife Fund, and the Metropolitan Mayor's Caucus to Sponsor Earth Hour Chicago for one hour on March 29, 2008 from 8-9 p.m.

Residents, businesses and organizations are encouraged to join millions of people around the world in "turning off the lights". The goal is to demonstrate that by working together, each one of us can make a positive impact on global warming.

ComEd is working closely with City of Chicago officials and emergency agencies to ensure a safe and coordinated event. ComEd encourages municipalities to participate in this event by urging residents to turn out non-essential lighting in their homes.

Earth Hour is just one more way ComEd is demonstrating its commitment to environmental stewardship. Through CARE (www.COMEDCARE.com) ComEd is helping customers to reduce energy usage, manage their bills and protect the environment. It is their hope that Earth Hour will serve as an additional way to educate customers about becoming smarter energy consumers. For more information or to any questions, visit www.earthhour.org
