EARTH HOUR –2023

MARCH --25

Earth Hour Day will be observed all over the world today, Saturday, March 25, from 8:30 - 9:30 PM. Every year, millions of people switch off for one hour to show that they care about the future of our planet.This is a worldwide campaign/movement organized by WWF (World Wide Fund). It is held annually to encourage individuals, societies, communities, shopping malls, corporates etc., to turn off electric lights that are not essential for one hour. Thus, that specific hour will be called Earth Hour Day. It was started as a lights-off event in Sydney, Australia, in 2007.

Historically, Earth Hour has focused on the climate crisis, but more recently, Earth Hour has strived to also bring the pressing issue of nature loss to the fore. The aim is to create an unstoppable movement for nature, as it did when the world came together to tackle climate change.
