Turn your lights off tonight for Earth Hour and commit to a sustainable living
Turn off your lights tonight for one hour at 8.30pm at your respective homes and recommit to the fight against climate change.
The good news is: there are solutions. It is still possible to limit climate change, protect our planet and safeguard our future sustainably.
Earth Hour represents an occasion where ordinary individuals show their appreciation of the environment and nature, and adopt actions on daily basis, contributing to making a difference for a sustainable society.
Earth Hour unites people to save the planet.
People use this day to reflect on how we can better treat the earth, such as by recycling, reducing our plastic use, switching to renewable electricity and taking measures to lower our carbon footprint –all are key to protecting the planet.
Turn off your lights tonight for one hour at 8.30pm at your respective homes and recommit to the fight against climate change.
“After the hour, all individuals are urged to continue to take a positive action for the Earth and openly discuss best practices they can adopt on daily basis to contribute to sustainable biodiversity, energy, food and water for all,” said Mr Seng Teak, WWF Country Director.
“Our positive action today and onward for protecting the Earth creates a good legacy for future generations,” he added.
Together, let’s build a cleaner, safer and greener future for the current and future generations.
“Let’s cultivate our generation for the positive change to help protect the environment and natural resources for our sustainable future,” said Ms Soun Sreydeth, Student of Department of Media and Communications of the Royal University of Phnom Penh.
