Earth Hour 2012 in 3 switch-off locations

The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) again kick-started Earth Hour - the world’s largest environmental event - through its ‘I Will if You Will’ campaign which shows how each of us can make the world a better place.

Earth Hour 2011 inspired more than a billion people worldwide and over 18 million Filipinos to switch of their lights for the planet.

Now Earth Hour 2012 is taking a bigger step by organizing three simultaneous official switch- off ceremonies, to be held at Ayala Triangle Gardens in Makati, Plaza Independencia in Cebu, and SM Davao on March 31, 2012.

March to the venue nearest you and join the program to learn more about WWF, the Earth Hour campaign, and what each one of us can do to make a difference for the planet! You can also watch all sorts of live performances with your friends and family. The program starts at 7:00pm and the switch-off is slated from 8:30 to 9:30pm.

You have two options: you can march to your preferred venues and join the celebration or you can stay at home and celebrate the switchoff in a low-carbon manner.

Be part of the ‘I Will if You Will’ campaign and dare your friends to save the planet! The campaign uses social media platforms like Facebook, Youtube and Twitter to empower people to share a personal dare with the world by asking everyone, “What are you willing to do to save the planet?” These simple dares can range from recycling, to switching to energyefficient light bulbs, using power strips for appliances or signing up for paperless banking.
