Earth Hour is a WWF event and it began in Sydney, Australia in 2007. It was such a huge success that in 2008, WWF decided to make Earth Hour a global event and its been growing ever since. In 2008, millions of people in hundreds of cities in more than 30 countries turned off their lights for Earth Hour.

WWF created Earth Hour to help show people how they can be a part of the climate solution and use that participation to show government that people are taking action for the planet and want that same leadership from local and national governments.
