The City Clerk read the following Proclamation into the record:
WHEREAS, our nation's use of energy continues to increase, resulting in detrimental effects on the world's climate; and
WHEREAS, it has been estimated that turning non-essential lights out in America for one hour could save as least 15% of the energy consumed on an average Saturday night; and
WHEREAS, the energy savings will reduce carbon emissions into our air, preserve the natural resources used to produce this energy, set a positive precedent for the rest of the nation, and result in ongoing reduced costs for the taxpayers and businesses of the City of Dover; and
WHEREAS, participation in Lights Out America - Earth Hour will provide the residents of the City of Dover with insight into the impact of light pollution and allow them to witness firsthand the benefits of regulating outdoor lighting.
