Fifth Third Goes Dark for Earth Hour
Fifth Third is turning off the lights tonight (March 28) at 8:30 eastern in solidarity with organizations around the world in honor of Earth Hour—10 years and counting. By turning off our lights, we hope to illuminate awareness of climate change and our commitment to be an environmental sustainability leader. Fifth Third was the first bank and first Fortune 500 company to achieve 100% renewable solar power. Participating locations for Earth Hour are located in Ohio, Michigan, Illinois and Florida and represent 1.8 million square feet.
