Earth Hour– March 26, 2022

 

All we need is at least an hour to make our environment much better, and Earth Hour, which is observed annually on the last Saturday of March, offers that. Earth Hour was created by the World Wide Fund for Nature (W.W.F.) and is held every year, encouraging people, neighborhoods, and organizations to switch off non-essential electric lights, for one hour, from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m, as a symbol of dedication to the planet.

HISTORY OF EARTH HOUR
Earth Hour was produced to actively include each people in the fight versus environment modification, and started as a lights-off occasion in Sydney, Australia, in 2007. Earth Hour is now a worldwide occasion, encouraging everybody to turn off non-essential electrical lights for an hour in between 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on the last Saturday of March.

In 2004, World Wide Fund for Nature (W.W.F.) Australia, met with advertising agency Leo Burnett Sydney to discuss ideas for engaging Australians on the problem of environment change. The idea for a large-scale off switch wasn’t coined till 2006, under the title ‘The Huge Flick.’ In 2007, with the backing of Fairfax Media together with Sydney’s Lord Mayor Clover Moore, Earth Hour was held on March 31 in Sydney, Australia at 7:30 p.m., local time.

In 2008, Earth Hour 2008 was held globally on March 29 from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. local time, and had 35 countries around the world participating, and over 400 cities in assistance. Landmarks all over the world switched off their non-essential lighting for Earth Hour, and even Google’s homepage went dark on the day. Getting involved countries and cities experienced a huge decrease in megawatt-hours and carbon dioxide reduction.

Periodically, in years when Holy Saturday falls on the last Saturday of March, or other cultural activities are observed, Earth Hour is moved a week earlier than its normal date. Since 2008, numerous nations and people have actually taken part, growing this event into among the world’s largest grassroots motions for the environment.

Countless individuals all over the world switch off their lights to show they care about the future of our world, and joining Earth Hour’s switch off reminds us that even small actions can make a huge distinction.
