Mark your calendar! Earth Hour is from 8:30 pm - 9:30 pm on March 29th, 2014!
What is Earth Hour?
Earth Hour is a worldwide grassroots movement uniting people to protect the planet, and is organised by WWF. Engaging a massive mainstream community on a broad range of environmental issues, Earth Hour was famously started as a lights-off event in Sydney, Australia in 2007. Since then it has grown to engage more than 7000 cities and towns worldwide, and the one-hour event continues to remain the key driver of the now larger movement.

How can I become a part of the Earth Day Campaign?
The first thing anyone can do to get involved is to turn off their lights on Saturday, March 29, 2014, from 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm. But there's much, much more. But our full ambition is for people to take action beyond the hour. Whether it's supporting a crowdfunding or crowdsroucing campaign on www.earthhour.org or getting involved in Earth Hour campaigns in their own country, or starting the movement in their own community. The vision is always to do more, so make the light switch the beginning of your journey.

Thanks for that very informative post! Unfortunately, not a lot of people are aware of when exactly Earth Hour commences. It's nice to see you allotting time to notify those who aren't fully aware of the event. Your involvement in that campaign is really helpful to the environment. All the best! :)
