Why Does the World Observe Earth Hour? | Weather.com (The Weather Channel)

Mountain View, CA, United States Weather · Earth Hour 2023 to Be Observed on March 25! Here's Why the World Celebrates This 'Lights Out' Event ...

Earth Hour famously began in Sydney, Australia back in 2007, and it was supported by more than 2.2 million individuals and 2,000 businesses. This leads to near coincidental sunset times in both hemispheres, thereby ensuring a compelling visual impact for a global ‘lights out’ event — a major reason why we celebrate Earth Hour towards the end of March! This lights-off gesture is symbolic; the deeper aim of Earth Hour is to encourage individuals, households, communities and businesses to take accountability for their ecological footprint and engage in a dialogue on finding real solutions to challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss and environmental degradation as a whole.

The event encourages individuals to turn off all lights and electrical appliances at their homes and offices for an hour to promote awareness of climate change challenges and energy conservation. Now in its 17th year, Earth Hour has evolved from a simple lights-out event to a powerful catalyst for positive environmental change. The following year, the event gained international recognition and was celebrated on March 29, 2008, with millions of people from around the world participating. The inaugural observance was held on March 31, 2007, at 7:30 pm local time in Sydney, where people were encouraged to turn off their lights for an hour. The event has become a platform for driving major legislative changes through the collective power of people and their actions. By coming together in this way, we can raise awareness of the urgent need for action to protect our planet's future.

Millions celebrate WWF's 2023 Earth Hour, creating The Biggest ... (WWF)

Global leaders, celebrities, individuals, youth groups and businesses from over 190 countries and territories came together at 8:30pm on Saturday 25 March, ...

Historically, Earth Hour has focused on the climate crisis, but more recently, Earth Hour has strived to also bring the pressing issue of nature loss to the fore. Earth Hour is therefore more important than ever, for ensuring that millions of people across the globe gather in this moment of solidarity, to celebrate and protect our planet. WWF's mission is to stop the degradation of the Earth's natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature, by conserving the world's biological diversity, ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable, and promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption. Together we’ve created the Biggest Hour for Earth yet – we’ve managed to turn a single hour into millions of hours of positive actions for the planet – keeping a light on our crucial 2030 goals and the people ready to defend them. Born in Sydney in 2007, Earth Hour has grown to become the world's largest grassroots movements for the environment, inspiring individuals, communities, businesses and organizations in more than 190 countries and territories to take tangible environmental action. This year’s Earth Hour follows the historic Kunming-Montreal Agreement at COP15, which in December last year committed the world to halting and reversing biodiversity loss by 2030. - WWF's European Policy Office this year dedicated Earth Hour to bringing nature back to Europe, by launching a much needed public mobilisation campaign calling for the adoption of a game-changing EU Nature Restoration Law. - Building on China's leading role in negotiating the historic Kunming-Montreal agreement, WWF-China hosted Earth Hour's ‘Give an Hour for Earth’ celebrations with a series of sustainability forums and music events in cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan, Chengdu and Kunshan. This incredible series of events and activity was topped off with an outdoor exhibition running on solar power that looked back on the 15 years of success of Earth Hour in China. The public were also encouraged to ‘switch off’ from everyday distractions and Give an Hour for Earth. This year, WWF’s Earth Hour campaign encouraged individuals, communities and businesses to give an Hour for Earth. Other landmarks that took part in this year’s Earth Hour include China's Zhouzhuang in Kunshan and the Beijing National Speed Skating Hall, Egypt's Ministry of Environment, Cambodia's Independence Monument, the Old Mutual Tower in Nairobi, and The Musée du Louvre and the Notre-Dame de Paris, both in France.
