Earth Hour 2024

Lights Out! Earth Hour 2024 Highlights Worldwide Call for Climate Action

Join the global movement and turn off your lights for a brighter future!

Earth Hour 2024 brought together people from around the globe in a symbolic gesture to raise awareness about the urgency of climate change. From activists in Indonesia holding candles to major world landmarks going dark, the message was clear: it's time to prioritize sustainable living. In Canada, Manitobans were urged to turn off their lights on March 23, highlighting the importance of individual action in combating environmental challenges.

As the warmest winter in U.S. history was recorded, the impact of climate change was evident, with El Nino playing a significant role. The initiative, spearheaded by the World Wide Fund, emphasized the need for collective efforts to protect our planet's biodiversity and preserve nature's beauty.

Across the world, from the London Eye in the UK to Hyderabad monuments in India, lights were switched off to support Earth Hour. As Filipinos joined in the movement by turning off their lights for an hour, the global community showcased solidarity in the fight against climate change.

WWF's Earth Hour, now in its 18th year, continues to inspire millions to take action against environmental degradation. The annual event symbolizes a united front in the battle for a sustainable and greener future, reminding us all of the power of individual actions in creating positive change.

Did you know that the Earth Hour anthem, composed by Shantanu Moitra and sung by Papon, aims to soothe and inspire people to conserve nature? Additionally, the London Eye and Buckingham Palace were among the notable landmarks that participated in Earth Hour 2024, shedding light on the importance of collective action for a healthier planet.
