Councils take the lead

In the UK we have areas that are controlled by the Local Authority or Council.They look after the local issues.
In November 2007 the Coventry and Warwickshire Councils decided to have a campaign to "Switch Off" the lights and they advertised this campaign in their local papers and I have to give them credit as at least they are trying to develop awareness of how switching off can help our planet.
I think that more councils in the UK should follow their lead and have an annual day where we switch off our lights,plugs and gadgets.
