Way to Go Ontario!  
As a result of your participation in the 2008 Blackout Day Challenge, we conserved enough energy to take 27,000 homes off the grid for the day! 

According to WWF Canada we also generated 2099 kg in Green House Gas savings!
That is equal to not producing 48,277 plastic bags or 145 CFL lightbulbs turned off for an entire year!


Darci Lombard, Summer House Park campground and cottage resort, Miller Lake: Last year we had a great time promoting the Blackout Day challenge with a 50% drop in power usage! In 2009 we hosted activities for kids, turning non-essential equipment off, & host a star-gazing night at the beach. www.summerhousepark.ca


Gino Celano
Toronto, Canada

Gino bikes wherever he goes!
Sometimes from Toronto to Hamilton and back in a single day - Most commuters don't even drive that far!



 

The Run for One Planet made a special stop in the Cities of Guelph and Woodstock to support Blackout Day in 2008!

The Run for One Planet is a carbon neutral year-long run around the continent by two Canadians, Matt Hill and Stephanie Tait, to inspire Environmental Action.
