Every year, millions of people across the globe take part in the worldwide event of 'Earth Hour' to raise awareness about climate change challenges and ...

The first observance was organised on March 31, 2007, in Sydney at 7:30 pm, local time and a year later, the Earth Hour was held internationally on March 29. The Earth Hour event was first introduced as a symbolic lights out event in 2007 by the WWF Sydney and its partners. Supporters in more than 190 countries and territories will take part in the Earth Hour event this year.

Global superstars are expected to take part, including Malaysian singer-songwriter Zee Avi, Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach, and German musician Peter Schilling.

Historically, Earth Hour has focused on the climate crisis, but more recently, Earth Hour has strived to also bring the pressing issue of nature loss to the fore. WWF's mission is to stop the degradation of the Earth's natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature, by conserving the world's biological diversity, ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable, and promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption. Earth Hour is therefore more important than ever, for ensuring that 2023 is the year of change needed to reach that crucial 2030 nature positive goal. The movement recognizes the role of individuals in creating solutions to the planet’s most pressing environmental challenges and harnesses the collective power of its millions of supporters to drive change. Born in Sydney in 2007, Earth Hour has grown to become the world's largest grassroots movements for the environment, inspiring individuals, communities, businesses and organizations in more than 190 countries and territories to take tangible environmental action. Together, we can turn a single Earth Hour into millions of hours of inspiration, inviting millions of people to act, and making millions more take notice. This year’s Earth Hour comes hot on the heels of the historic Kunming-Montreal Agreement at COP15, which in December last year committed the world to halting and reversing biodiversity loss by 2030. The organisation aims to amass seven years’ worth of hours - mirroring the time we have left to take action to secure a nature positive world for the sake of people and planet. This provides different options on how to pledge an hour in what WWF expects to be the biggest Earth Hour yet. For the first time in its incredible 17-year history, this year’s Earth Hour will also encourage people around the globe to ‘switch off’ themselves by taking a break from their routine and everyday distractions, and deciding for themselves what they can do to restore our one home. On the day of Earth Hour, WWF Mongolia will hold a sustainable fashion show with local fashion designers while engaging communities and individuals from across Mongolia. South Korea’s [Choi Si Won](https://www.instagram.com/siwonchoi/?hl=en), from boy band Super Junior is also expected to show his support for Earth Hour 2023.
