What is Earth Hour?
WWF’s Earth Hour is a global annual event where hundreds of millions of people switch off their lights for one hour to show they care about our planet. It’s about people from across the globe coming together to create a symbolic and spectacular lights out display and asking for change.
It happens every year between 8.30 and 9.30pm, with switch offs starting in Samoa and finishing in Tahiti. It’s been growing every year, with more and more countries and people signing up – last year we hit an all-time record with 162 countries taking part!
Lights out. Do it for our planet!
Be part of the world’s biggest celebration for our amazing planet, simply sign up and switch off the lights for one hour at 8.30pm on Saturday 28th March. But the lights out really is just the beginning. At its heart, Earth Hour is a community of people who are sharing their love for our planet and taking action to protect it every day. Because together we can make change happen…
