Earth Hour 🌍Earth Hour is observed annually on the last Saturday of March. From 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., people are encouraged to turn their lights and non-essential appliances off in an effort to raise awareness about the issues of climate change and encourage people to do something to protect the planet. With the backing of governments, some big gestures have been made over the years, and some of the largest and most well-known monuments and places have been plunged into darkness:🌍In 2008 The city of San Francisco switched off the lights on The Golden Gate Bridge and the Colosseum in Rome was also darkened. 🌏In London, Big Ben and The Houses of Parliament went dark in 2009 in recognition of Earth Hour. So too did Nelson's Column and the National Gallery.🌎Across Europe, The Eiffel Tower and the dome of the Vatican also went dark in 2009. 🌍In South America, the lights of the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro is dimmed and in Beijing China, government buildings are also dimmed. 🌏During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 Earth Hour took place online as a campaign that challenged people to think beyond switching lights off and to think about the greater impact of climate change and future pandemics.

Let’s talk with @sweetsquared.hair ‘Apart from the environmental benefits that we're going to derive from this particular scheme, I think one of the big benefits is that we're showing leadership to people that are new into the industry or younger in the industry.’
TODAY IS GLOBAL RECYCLING DAY ♻️Let’s hear directly from the Global Recycling Foundation: “Every year, the Earth yields billions of tons of natural resources and at some point, in the not-too-distant future, it will run out.That’s why we must think again about what we throw away – seeing not waste, but opportunity.The last decade has been the hottest on record, and we are now facing a climate emergency of unparalleled proportions. If we don’t make significant and rapid changes, we will see continued rising global temperatures, the melting of icecaps, continents on fire and rapid deforestation.”We will certainly be redoubling our efforts on Global Recycling Day - will you?
