Earth Hour 60 This Saturday!

Earth Hour 60

Earth Hour 60 happens this Saturday March 25th at 8:30PM in your local time zone. 

Earth Hour is a global initiative that encourages individuals, businesses, and governments to turn off non-essential lights and electronics for one hour to raise awareness about the impact of climate change and promote sustainable living. It was first started by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) in 2007 and has since grown into a worldwide movement.

During Earth Hour, people around the world are encouraged to switch off their lights for one hour, usually from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. local time, on the last Saturday in March. The event aims to raise awareness about climate change and inspire people to take action to reduce their carbon footprint.

Participants in Earth Hour can also engage in other activities to promote sustainability, such as organizing community events, planting trees, or reducing their energy consumption in other ways. The event is a powerful reminder of the importance of taking action to protect the planet and build a more sustainable future.

While we look forward to Earth Hour 60 in 2023, it will follow the same format as previous years, with individuals and organizations around the world coming together to make a symbolic gesture for the environment.

While it's true that turning off your lights for one hour during Earth Hour may not have a significant impact on its own, participating in Earth Hour sends a powerful message of unity and solidarity in the fight against climate change. When millions of people around the world turn off their lights at the same time, it sends a strong message to governments, businesses, and other organizations that people are concerned about the environment and want to see action taken to address climate change.

In addition, participating in Earth Hour is a way to raise awareness about the importance of taking action to reduce our carbon footprint and protect the planet. By turning off your lights, you can start a conversation with friends, family, and colleagues about the impacts of climate change and what we can do to make a difference.

Finally, participating in Earth Hour can also be a symbolic gesture of your commitment to sustainability and your willingness to take action to protect the planet. While turning off your lights for one hour may seem like a small act, it can inspire you to make other changes in your life to reduce your energy consumption and live a more sustainable lifestyle. Every small action we take to protect the planet can add up to make a significant difference over time.
