Earth Hour is an annual event which asks you to switch off all your lights for one hour. The aim is to involve as
many people as possible in positive change for our planet.
What is Earth Hour?
Earth Hour is organised by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and it's a big event usually at the end of
March every year. On this evening, people 'go dark' - that is, switch off lights in their homes, schools and
businesses all at the same time for one hour. Earth Hour started in Australia in 2007, when 2.2 million people in
Sydney turned off all unnecessary lights for an hour. Since then, it has grown into an international event, and
many countries around the world have taken part. Famous buildings that have gone dark for Earth Hour include
the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, the Houses of Parliament
and Buckingham Palace in London, the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Forbidden City in Beijing and New York's
Empire State Building.
What’s the idea behind Earth Hour?
The idea is to raise awareness of environmental issues and call for action to protect nature, so that people enjoy
healthy, happy and sustainable lives now and in the future.
It's true that switching off the lights for just one hour saves only a small amount of power. But this is only the
beginning. On one level, participating in Earth Hour makes people think about the problem of climate change and
what we can do in everyday life to protect nature.
What does ‘60+’ mean?
The logo of Earth Hour is '60+'. The number 60 is for the 60 minutes of Earth Hour, and the plus invites people
to keep on taking action even after Earth Hour is finished. In fact, people who join Earth Hour say that taking part
makes them want to do more for the environment. The climate activist Greta Thunberg says that 'Earth Hour is
every hour of everyday.
