SINGAPORE: Some buildings and places in Singapore will be reduced to darkness or semi-darkness for an hour on the night of March 27 during Earth Hour.

This year, more organisations are coming on board to take a stand against climate change.

The newly-opened Resorts World Sentosa is one. It will dim or switch off selected non-essential lights.

Another is Changi Airport which will dim operational lights within its terminal buildings and malls.

Last year, Earth Hour's main 'switch-off' event at The Esplanade Park was joined by many landmarks and national monuments in the CBD area which pledged to switch off the lights in their buildings for an hour.

This will be repeated this year. Individuals can also take part.
