Learn More About The Earth Hour Illustration Drawing

What is Earth Hour? The project began as "a symbolic lights-out event" in Sydney, Australia in 2007, sponsored by the World Wildlife Fund. It is an act of solidarity that shows support for protecting our planet and the environment by turning off the lights.

Earth Hour is held each year on the last Saturday in March. In 2020, for example, people from 190 different countries participated.

More than just saving an hour's worth of electricity, "it has become a catalyst for positive environmental impact, driving major legislative changes by harnessing the power of the people and collective action."
