Earth Hour is a worldwide movement for the planet organized by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). The event is held worldwide annually encouraging individuals, communities, households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights for one hour, from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. on the last Saturday in March, as a symbol for their commitment to the planet.[1] It was famously started as a lights-off event in Sydney, Australia in 2007. Since then it has grown to engage more than 7000 cities and towns worldwide. Today, Earth Hour engages a massive mainstream community on a broad range of environmental issues. The one-hour event continues to remain the key driver of the now larger movement.
Earth Hour 2015 was on Saturday, March 28, from 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm in a location's local time. Earth Hour 2016 will be on Saturday, March 26, from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. during participants' local time.
Learn what you can do to help fight climate change in your community and at home. Each and every one of us can continue to engage in the movement to help animals, people and nature by taking these eight steps to fight climate change:
Sign up for an energy audit for your home. Often these are free from your utility and they'll help you find ways to cut energy use and save money, too!
Lower the thermostat on your hot water heater to 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
Unplug all appliances when you’re not using them, and turn off your computer and monitor when you no longer need them. Contrary to popular belief, turning them on and off will not cause damage.
Wash clothes in cold water (especially clothes with vibrant colors). This not only reduces hot water usage, but it is better for your clothing as well.
Air dry dishes rather than using the heated drying cycle in the dishwasher.
Buy products that have the Energy Star label on them. All Energy Star products meet strict guidelines set by the US Department of Energy.
Bike, walk or take public transit to work one day (or more!) per week.
Buy renewable energy from your energy provider. Most utilities offer this option, and it is usually not much more expensive than paying for dirty energy.
