Photos: Lights out at Milad Tower to commemorate Earth Hour

FNA | Mehdi Marizad: The iconic Milad Tower in Tehran went dark for an hour on Saturday night, as the Earth Hour campaign kicked off across the globe to raise public awareness about climate change and energy consumption. Ali Darvishpour, the top executive of Milad Tower, the world’s sixth tallest telecoms giant, told the Persian-language ISNA on Saturday that the move is aimed at uniting people to protect the planet. “The move aims to [encourage] collective action to save the planet. We, as guardians of earth, have a duty to respect the globe,” he said. Earth Hour was also commemorated by urban symbols in other Iranian cities, including Rasht, Kerman, Ahvaz, Urmia and Isfahan.
