A very important event takes place today - the Earth Hour!

The aim is to turn off all your lights and electronic devices for an hour. The more people participate, the bigger the positive impact on our wonderful planet. The Earth Hour starts at 8.30 PM your local time. Here are some ideas what to do at home (from the WWF):

1. Switch off your lights
This is the DNA of the Earth Hour movement and the easiest way to participate this Earth Hour. Simply switch off all non-essential lights for an hour!

2. Dinner-in-the-dark
Get some candles ready and whip up healthy and delicious meals that will make your taste buds tingle! Don't know where to start? Check out this list of 50 foods for a healthier planet and a healthier you!

Up for a challenge? Try a zero-waste cookout or put on a blindfold and try and guess what's been cooked up!

3. Have a night of board games or book readings in candle-light

4. Themed movie night
Get the popcorn ready and enjoy your most treasured Disney movies or take on those Harry Potter marathons that you've been always wanting to do. You can even watch some spectacular Emmy Award-winning documentaries like Our Planet completely free on YouTube! Did we mention it's narrated by David Attenborough?

5. Camp in your backyard or living room
If you love the adventure of camping outdoors, we challenge you to turn your back garden or living room into your very own camping space! Don’t have an actual tent? Why not make one with bedsheets, pillows, and other household items!

6. Practice some night-photography or try out "light-painting"
Want to test your photography skills? Try taking portraits of your family and friends in low-light or candle-light!

7. Create your own mini-golf course using household objects
A little friendly competition can’t hurt!

8. Challenge your artistic side with a candle-lit paint night
Feeling funky? You can also try using glow-in-the dark neon paint!

9. Write a letter to your future eco-warrior self
Do you wish to limit your water wastage or purchase eco-friendly goods more often? Why not put all of your sustainability goals into a letter for your future self! It’s a fun way to hold yourself accountable while at the same time do your part in helping our planet!

10. Eco-friendly fashion show
Turn your living room into a runway and bond with your family as you take on a fun and silly night of dressing up! Unleash your creative side by making your own costume from recyclable materials!

11. Dance the night away or hold a silent disco
Grab a pair of headphones and groove to your own favorite music! Take it up a notch by battling it out with your family and friends in a silent disco and claim dance floor supremacy.

12. Acoustic jam session
Unleash the Ed Sheeran or Beyonce in you and sing the night away with your friends and family! For all you shower singers out there - this is your chance to shine! ⭐

13. Try Yoga at Home
Connect to nature and create a zen-like experience by meditating to some nature sounds, or trying some animal-inspired yoga poses!
