Let us turn-off non-essential lights for one hour on March 29! Earth Hour is a worldwide event organized by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), encouraging households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. at the participants’ local time, to raise awareness about the need to take action on climate change. Since 2009, or two years after Earth Hour was launched in 2007, the Philippines has consistently had the most number of participating local government units among all countries observing the event. “Earth Hour is certainly the most vivid and dramatic measure of our unity for a common cause. This mass switch-off means less consumption of electricity, slowing the buildup of climate change-inducing carbon dioxide in our atmosphere,” Secreray Ramon Paje said.
