EARTH HOUR PDF Print E-mail
Written by Delphi   

With over 1 billion people in 77 countries and 680 cities, including Cape Town, already participating, Earth Hour 2009 is set to be the world's first global vote on the issue of climate change. Voting takes place on 28 March 2009 at 8pm SA time. You vote by switching off your lights for an hour ... and we'll be doing just that at Vision Serpent.

To further honour our commitment to combating climate change, we are charging a R10 environmental cleaning levy per car at the gate. A percentage of this amount will go towards planting trees at MalPlaas in Botrivier as a way to balance the party's carbon footprint. The rest will go towards recycling all of the waste generated at the event by Mr Recycle. Hopefully this levy will also encourage punters to organise car pools. Remember to reduce litter and leave no trace. Let's not party at the expense of the venues or the planet!
