THE UN SECRETARY-GENERAL's MESSAGE FOR EARTH HOUR

On Earth Hour every year, millions of people in hundreds of cities around the world turn off their lights.

It is a call to action: to make peace with nature, massively increase climate action, and save our planet.

And it is a reminder that all of us can play our part – in large ways and small – to protect our common home and safeguard our future.

Every minute and every hour counts.

I invite you to switch off your lights on March 25th at 8:30 p.m. local time.

From the darkness, let us build a brighter and more sustainable future for everyone, everywhere.
