Event Description

What your city can do for Earth Hour?

At 8:30 p.m. your local time on Saturday, March 25, hundreds of millions of people around the globe will turn off their non-essential lights for one hour during Earth Hour to display a commitment to protect the one thing that unites us all -- our planet.

From the beginning, cities and towns across America have enthusiastically embraced Earth Hour—turning off lights in government buildings and urging their citizens to participate. This single act is provoking discussion and is helping to create the change we need to reduce our environmental impact.

Earth Hour is a great opportunity for your local government to demonstrate your commitment to the environment, showcase your existing environmental work and engage with your communities. Here are some tips for how your city can support Earth Hour 2017:
