China to have More Involvement in Earth Hour 2009
Chief of WWF-Australia, Greg Bourne, has indicated that next year’s Earth Hour will have a much bigger involvement by China. He said:
We’re pretty certain, that when we do it next year, China will become very much more involved
This sounds promising, given China is the world’s most populated country.
Bourne indicates that “tens of millions” of people participated in this year’s Earth Hour. He estimates that it could be as many as 100 million.
That figure will surely increase substantially with China’s increased involvement. According to July 2007 estimates, China’s population is 1,321,851,888!
Bourne also said that this year’s Earth Hour had involvement from every country.
