Celebrate Earth Hour - 8.30pm Saturday 29th March 2014

Join in with millions worldwide and switch your lights off for one hour this Saturday at 8.30pm for Earth Hour!

This Saturday 29 March millions of people around the world will come together to switch off their lights for one hour as part of WWF’s Earth Hour campaign.

Last year, over 154 countries worldwide participated in the global Earth Hour lights out event. Iconic landmarks such as Big Ben, the Eiffel Tower, the Acropolis, the Coliseum and the Sydney Opera House all switched off and hundreds of local communities, schools and businesses took part.

WWF’s Earth Hour campaign is a chance for people to show that they want to do their bit and care about the planet.

Reducing energy use – and improving energy efficiency – is one of the best ways we can cut our carbon emissions. Across the EU, 25% of our CO2 emissions come from the generation of electricity.
By switching off for an hour, many people might realise that they can switch off other non-essential lights and appliances at other times of year too.
