On Earth Hour’s tenth anniversary on 25 March 2017, an unprecedented 187 countries and territories across seven continents came together to take an urgent stand for climate action. This year, more than 3,000 landmarks and monuments switched off their lights as millions united to protect our planet and future generations from climate change - a testimony to what #togetherpossible stands for!
Read on to discover the people and organizations powering our global movement to change climate change. Together, we continue to inspire individuals, communities, businesses, and organizations around the globe to take action for our planet!
WWF Teams from all around the globe
From raising awareness on climate change to pushing for stronger climate policy and action, Earth Hour 2017 would not have achieved the success it did without our WWF teams teaming up with people and partners to shine a light on critical climate action.
Corporates and Organizations
Changing climate change requires everyone to be part of the action and we are proud to have thousands of organisations join the Earth Hour movement, year after year, to take their first step toward climate action! Thank you for helping pave the way towards a better, sustainable future for all!
