It isn't the act that is trying to change the world, it's the conversations that surround it. Just as FIRST isn't only about the competitions, it is about getting people interested in Science and Technology. Earth Hour acts as a catalyst for conversation.

As for impact, please read this article http://www.physorg.com/news126182148.html that discusses the impact that the Chicagoland area had.
