📝 About Earth Hour 2026
Earth Hour 2026 takes place on March 28 at 8:30 PM local time, calling on millions of people worldwide to switch off their lights for one hour in a powerful show of solidarity for the planet. Organized by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), this annual event began in Sydney in 2007 as a grassroots statement against climate change and has since grown into a global movement observed in more than 190 countries. Iconic landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, Sydney Opera House, and Empire State Building go dark each year, creating dramatic visual reminders of humanity's shared responsibility to protect the environment. Beyond the symbolic lights-out, Earth Hour has inspired lasting environmental actions including new legislation, reforestation projects, and community-led sustainability initiatives around the world.
