Discover the impact of Earth Hour 2024 and how iconic landmarks worldwide are participating in the movement.

Earth Hour 2024 is set to make a significant impact on raising awareness about environmental conservation. This annual initiative by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) is a symbolic gesture encouraging people to pause and reflect on their connection to nature. With a soothing Earth Day anthem released on March 15, composed by Shantanu Moitra and sung by Papon, the message to conserve nature is resonating globally.

Hyderabad monuments will turn dark today evening to mark Earth Hour. The event, scheduled for March 23, aims to promote sustainable practices and highlight the importance of reducing energy consumption. Earth Hour is not just about turning off lights; it's a moment of unity and commitment to protecting the planet.

From cycling clubs in Thiruvananthapuram to renowned landmarks in the UK like the London Eye and Buckingham Palace participating in the lights-off event, Earth Hour is a call for action on a global scale. The event symbolizes a collective effort to support sustainable nature and climate action.

During Earth Hour, major world landmarks such as India Gate and Howrah Bridge in India, along with international symbols like the Eiffel Tower and Sydney Opera House, go dark to emphasize the need for environmental consciousness. This gesture serves as a reminder for individuals and governments worldwide to prioritize nature conservation and address climate change issues.

Did you know that the Earth Hour movement began in Sydney on March 31, 2007, as 'Lights Off' before evolving into a global phenomenon? The event has since inspired millions to take part in protecting the environment, making it one of the largest grassroots movements for the planet's well-being.
