About Earth Hour

Earth Hour is a worldwide movement organised by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), encouraging individuals, communities, and businesses to switch off non-essential lights for one hour on the last Saturday of March. In 2026, Earth Hour takes place on 28 March, drawing attention to climate change and environmental sustainability.

The 🌍 Globe showing europe africa is central to Earth Hour messaging, representing the global scale of the movement. 💡 Light bulb symbolises the simple act of switching off lights that defines the event, while 🕯️ Candle represents the alternative light source many people use during the hour of darkness.

Earth Hour has grown from a single-city event in Sydney in 2007 to a global phenomenon observed in over 190 countries. 🌙 Crescent moon evokes the night-time setting of the event, ♻️ Recycling symbol represents the broader environmental goals, and 🌿 Herb symbolises the natural world that Earth Hour seeks to protect.
