For everyone at WWF, Earth Hour is one of the highlights of the year – an opportunity for us to slow down and reflect on the world around us, where we’re going, and where we want to go.  Earth Hour is a chance to think about what climate change means to you, personally, and a chance to stand together with your community for the future you want, a future where climate change is no longer a threat.
