The iconic Christ the Redeemer statue before and after the lights

COMBO - This two-picture combo shows an aerial view of the iconic Christ the Redeemer statue before and after the lights that illuminate the statue are switched off to observe an hour of voluntary darkness for the global "Earth Hour" campaign, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Saturday March 26, 2011. An estimated 1,000 landmarks' lights were turned off worldwide for 60 minutes at 8:30 p.m. local time, as a symbolic act to raise awareness about climate change and to make people aware of everyday energy use.
