Earth Hour, the world's largest grassroots movement for the environment, is set to unite millions of people around the world to show solidarity for both people and planet. Taking place at a crucial moment in time, this year's event invites people around the globe to unite in a moment of reflection on our relationship with each other and our collective home.
From the Sydney Opera House where Earth Hour began in 2007, through Niagara Falls, Los Angeles International Airport Gateway Pylons, and Pikes Peak in the US, a host of global landmarks will take part in the symbolic switch-off moment which this year seeks to communicate a safer, fairer and more sustainable future for everyone.
"Nature is an important part of all our lives - from the air we breathe to the water we drink and the food we eat," said Chris Conner, vice president of media and external affairs. "Earth Hour offers a unique opportunity for all of us to reflect on our commitment to the planet, while coming together in support of each other and a more sustainable future."
