KappAhl turns off the lights on Saturday
On Saturday, March 27th, 2010 at 08.30 pm to 09.30 pm the world will be switching off for the fourth time. “Larger, more important and more engaging” is the goal. This year the lights will be turned off at KappAhl as well!
When Earth Hour is held for the fourth time the lights will be turned off in all KappAhl stores in Sweden, at the distribution center and headoffice in Mölndal.
By switching off lights KappAhl assist in highlighting the urgency of a gathered engagement concerning the increased climate change.
