LIGHTS OFF| EARTH HOURS|TODAY|




Turn off your light today, The world celebrate EARTH HOUR.








Let us all stand in solidarity and observe Earth Hour tonight from 8:30 to 9:30pm for conserving energy by switching off all unnecessary energy consumption. We aim for a healthy and sustainable future for the world.

For one hour every March since 2007, darkness has swept the globe as grassroots environmentalists, schools, offices and those responsible for some of the world’s most iconic landmarks switch off lights in a symbolic call for more action on climate change.


Earth Hour is a worldwide movement organized by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). The event is held annually encouraging individuals, communities, and businesses to turn off non-essential electric lights for one hour, from 8:30 to 9:30 pm on a specific day towards the end of March, as a symbol of commitment to the planet. It was started as a lights-off event in Sydney, Australia, in 2007. Since then, it has grown to engage more than 7,000 cities and towns across 187 countries and territories.
Occasionally, in years when Holy Saturday falls on the last Saturday of March, Earth Hour is moving a week early rather than its traditional date.
Earth Hour 2018 will be on March 24, from 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm.
