BE ON WITH THE WORLD AND PLEDGE TO THE EARTH HOUR. JUST CLICK THE SWITCH. The Geeky Pinas Team fully supports the Earth Hour, hoping this event would bring awareness and impact to everyone around the world. It's main goal is to make people join forces to improve the planet especially from the bad effects of the emissions of carbon dioxide to our atmosphere and other dangerous chemicals due to human energy consumption that led to it. Let us support the upcoming Earth Hour or the "Earth Day".

60+ EARTH HOUR - CITY SWITCH-OFF


Let's Switch Off Lights at #EarthHour2014! March 29, 8:30PM

Brief History

"Earth Hour is a worldwide grassroots movement uniting people to protect the planet, and is organised by WWF. Engaging a massive mainstream community on a broad range of environmental issues, Earth Hour was famously started as a lights-off event in Sydney, Australia in 2007. Since then it has grown to engage more than 7000 cities and towns worldwide, and the one-hour event continues to remain the key driver of the now larger movement." - earthhour.org

Where would Earth Hour take place?

"Earth Hour 2014 will be held on Saturday 29 March between 8.30PM and 9.30PM in your local time zone. The event is held worldwide towards the end of March annually, encouraging individuals, communities households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights for one hour as a symbol for their commitment to the planet. Earth Hour 2015 will take place on Saturday, 28 of March at 8:30PM to 9:30PM in your local timezone." - earthhour.org


What is Earth Hour Blue?

"Earth Hour Blue is an all-new digital crowdfunding and crowdsourcing platform for the planet launched in 2014 to capture the power of the crowd and engage people around the world beyond the lights out event. The crowdfunding section of the platform allows participants to financially support and deliver positive, tangible changes to the environment and communities all over the world. Individuals can also use Earth Hour Blue’s crowdsourcing platform, which will call for people to add their voice to some of the biggest environmental campaigns across the world." earthhour.org
