Fight climate change with the flip of a switch!

Lights Out Santa Barbara was a city and county-wide energy conservation event on October 20, 2007. We invited the entire city and county of Santa Barbara to turn off all non-essential lighting for one hour and to consider switching to compact flourescent light bulbs.

We estimate that turning lights out in Santa Barbara for even one hour could save a measurable amount of the energy Santa Barbarans consume on an average Saturday night.
