LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — Resorts World Las Vegas will participate in WWF’s Earth Hour for the fourth consecutive year, property officials announced on Monday.

The resort will be turning off all non-essential exterior lights from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 22, with a 60-second countdown video set to be displayed on the West Tower LED Screen to mark the event.

Officials say the global initiative is symbolic in nature and aims to raise awareness and support for the planet amidst the challenges of climate change.

The resort’s participation aligns it with other global landmarks that will also go dark in support of the planet.
