Every year, at 8:30 pm on the last Saturday of March, millions of people across the world join in raising awareness of the issues facing our planet.
But Earth Hour is more than just an Hour for the planet - it's a movement for our future.
And it's more than just a symbol of support - it's a catalyst for urgent change.
Earth Hour has always drawn its power from the people. Though global circumstances are different this year due to COVID-19, we still have an incredible opportunity to make an impact - online and from our homes. No matter where you are in the world, you can speak up for nature and bring global attention to the issues facing our planet!
2021 is an unmissable opportunity for change. Over the next few months, world leaders and key decision-makers will be attending crucial policy conferences on nature, biodiversity, and the climate. Let them know that you care about the state of our planet, urging them to step up their efforts to put nature on the path to recovery within the next decade.
People from a record-breaking 190 countries and territories supported Earth Hour 2020 in the midst of the COVID-19 outbreak.
Sudhanshu Sarronwala, Executive Director, Communications & Marketing at WWF International, reflects on eleven years of Earth Hour and the significance of Earth Hour 2020.
In the midst of the global COVID-19 health crisis, Earth Hour marks a moment of solidarity for the planet as global communities unite and organize events digitally.
Every year, we countdown together across the globe to celebrate Earth Hour and take one iconic action: switch off the lights.
But it is so much more than that. It is a symbol of unity. It is a symbol of hope. It is a symbol of power in collective action for nature.
