World View of Global Warming

Earth Hour is being organized by the international non-profit WWF (stands for World Wildlife Fund, not World Wrestling Federation), which hopes that one billion people in more than 1,000 cities will turn out their lights for an hour this evening -- creating a wave of evening darkness around the globe. "Two years ago, Earth Hour began in one city, in one country, when more than 2.2 million households and businesses in Sydney turned off their lights for one hour," according to a WWF statement. "Last year, Earth Hour reached 370 cities and towns in more than 35 countries across 18 time zones."

“Climate Change is undoubtedly and regrettably, the biggest immediate long-term environmental challenge we face. A failure to come to sound policy outcomes on climate change will not only have a negative environmental impact but also social and economic consequences for all of us. Stand up and join us in the fight against climate change. Support Earth Hour.” - Aamir Khan, Noted bollywood actor & filmmaker What you waiting for? Join us
