5. EARTH HOUR 2020 NARRATIVE:
Nature matters.
It is the planet’s life support system and gives us everything we need from the air we
breathe to the water we drink to the food we eat.
Nature is also a solution to climate change.
2020 is a critical year for nature. This year key political decisions will be taken on
climate action, sustainable development and nature. These decisions will affect the
health of our planet and our own future for decades to come.
Let’s unite and speak up for nature.

8. Earth Hour 2020: Raise your
voice for nature
The devastating effects of climate change
are escalating. We are seeing extreme
weather, loss of homes and livelihoods and
interruption of natural cycles. At the same
time, we are losing nature at an
unprecedented rate.
These issues are all intrinsically linked.
Nature is not only imperative for the
fundamentals of life - air, water and food -
but it is also one of solutions to climate
change.
We must act now. Let’s unite and raise
our voice for nature.
