Who Cares, I do

Who Cares, I do

A BRIEF HISTORY OF EARTH HOUR

It all started back in 2007, born out of frustration about inaction to tackle climate change and protect nature,
to replace people’s despair with hope and positivity at a global level.

On 31 March 2007, more than 2.2 million individuals and 2,000 businesses in Sydney,
Australia switched off their lights for one hour, which marked the beginning of the Earth Hour movement.

And that one particular hour has gone global, with more than 190 countries participating in switch-off events and activities,
to show their support for nature and climate.
