Since 2007, Earth Hour has shone a spotlight on the issues of climate change and nature loss. We’ve reached over 190 countries and territories and millions of people around the globe.

From Asia and Africa, to North and South America.  From Oceania and Europe, to Antarctica. We’ve sparked conversation in English, Portuguese, Mandarin, Yoruba, Indonesian and many more. We’ve generated hundreds of thousands of media articles, and billions of impressions online. 

But 2023 must be a year of change in order to reach our 2030 nature positive goal. We need more people, more than ever.  We need individuals, businesses, communities, towns and cities, entire nations to join in with Earth Hour. To play their part. To create the Biggest Hour for Earth. 60 minutes of global unity, in support and celebration of our planet.

As landmarks and homes across the planet switch off, we want everyone to take a break from their routine and everyday distractions and spend 60 minutes doing something positive for our planet. 

On 25th March 2023 at 8.30pm, we are asking everyone to join us, for 60 minutes and give an hour for Earth. 

Earth Hour believes that each and every one of us has the power to make a positive impact on our planet, but it’s up to us as individuals to decide how we do so. As a global movement, we acknowledge that the impact individuals can make is bounded by their own abilities, privilege and environment. Hence this year, we are giving autonomy of action to our global community. Earth Hour strives to inspire and support people to decide what they can do and want to do for Earth – our planet, our home. We’re extending the question to our global community: How will you give 60 minutes of your time to Earth, this Earth Hour?
