Each year on March 28th at 8:30pm, Earth Hour encourages individuals, businesses, and cities around the world to turn off non-essential lights for one hour to raise awareness about protecting the planet. Major companies like Verizon, Google, Ghirardelli Chocolate, and Timex have participated by dimming or turning off building lights and digital displays. They also promote Earth Hour to employees and customers. Participating helps spread the message of sustainability and companies can further support conservation through partnerships with WWF.

Sustainable Development Goals Target 12.2.pdfFatimaBni
The world is changing day by day . therefore it is needed positive change. To make the world a better place , we should change ourselves. And the main task to achieve sustainable development goals.
Green energy - The sustainable energy source of the future 01262016Tony Green
Today we primarily use fossil fuels to heat and power our homes and fuel our cars. It’s convenient to use coal, oil, and natural gas for meeting our energy needs, but we have a limited supply of these fuels on the Earth. We’re using them much more rapidly than they are being created. Eventually, they will run out.
Green Business practices, for small and medium businesses. Lets hope some companies at least follow it, and if they do we will be able to save our planet.
A global campaign with a simple message to switch off non essential lights for one hour, Earth Hour is a peoples’ movement on Climate Change, attracting governments, businesses, communities, men, women and children. A WWF initiative, Earth Hour has grown to become the largest environmental campaign in the history of our planet in just four years. At 8:30pm on 26 March 2011, towns and cities across the world will turn off their lights for one hour. This year, we call for your support not just for an hour but to sustain your commitments and responsible actions beyond the hour. In 2011, let us make Earth Hour a self perpetuating drive that inspires us to correct the way we live, every single day.

Whole World Water encourages spas, hotels, resorts and restaurants to filter, bottle and sell their own water and contribute 10% of the proceeds to the Whole World Water Fund, which benefits clean and safe water programs around the world.
3Degrees\'s in-house marketing and communications team works with our partners to help them communicate their commitment to taking action on climate change.
On February 9, 2023, the 1t.org US community gathered for our first-ever, all-hands virtual meeting. After a successful in-person Summit last summer, our community requested more opportunities to connect as a full community. We loved hearing about the incredible successes that the 1t.org US community has been making toward our goal to conserve, restore and grow one trillion trees by 2030!
The objective outline was for the creation of a Global Marketing
Strategy for P&G’s Tide Coldwater/ Ariel (Focusing on product
packaging; in store campaigns and social media only).
The GMS had to kept with P&G’s set of 2020 Sustainability
Goals. http://www.pg.com/en_US/sustainability/overview.shtml
The objective: convert 70% of wash loads into cold water by 2020Challenge: I was required to work with colleagues in NKU (Haile US Bank College of Business) on
a Global Marketing Strategy project for the client, Tide Coldwater/Ariel
(P&G) and was responsible to update its existing marketing strategy to
make it more global by accounting for the global and cultural challenges.
The primary focus was placed on developing specific strategies related
to product packaging, in-store campaigns, and social media and

packaging, in-store campaign, and/or social media use).
Earth Hour started in 2007 in Sydney, Australia when 2.2 million individuals and more than 2,000 businesses turned their lights off for one hour to take a stand against climate change. Only a year later and Earth Hour had become a global sustainability movement with more than 50 million people across 35 countries/territories participating. Global landmarks such as the Sydney Harbour Bridge, CN Tower in Toronto, Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, and Rome’s Colosseum, all stood in darkness, as symbols of hope for a cause that grows more urgent by the hour.
In March 2009, hundreds of millions of people took part in the third Earth Hour. Over 4000 cities in 88 countries/territories officially switched off to pledge their support for the planet, making Earth Hour 2009 the world’s largest global climate change initiative.
On Saturday 27 March, Earth Hour 2010 became the biggest Earth Hour ever. A record 128 countries and territories joined the global display of climate action. Iconic buildings and landmarks from Asia Pacific to Europe and Africa to the Americas switched off. People across the world from all walks of life turned off their lights and came together in celebration and contemplation of the one thing we all have in common – our planet.
Earth Hour 2011 will take place on Saturday 26 March at 8.30PM (local time). This Earth Hour we want you to go beyond the hour, so after the lights go back on think about what else you can do to make a difference. Together our actions add up.
Visit our Beyond the Hour platform to share your stories and to get inspiration from the actions our supporters have shared with us already.
Earth Hour by WWF
Earth Hour is organized by WWF. With almost 5 million supporters and a global network in over 100 countries/territories, it’s one of the world\'s largest and most respected independent conservation organizations. WWF’s mission is to stop the degradation of the Earth\'s natural environment and build a future where people live in harmony with nature.
Climate action is a vital and urgent global response to the escalating challenges posed by climate change. It encompasses a range of proactive efforts aimed at mitigating and adapting to the adverse impacts of climate change, with the overarching goal of preserving the planet's ecological balance and ensuring a sustainable future for all.
Mitigation:
Mitigation involves actions aimed at reducing the emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs) into the atmosphere to curb global warming and its associated effects. This includes transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency, adopting sustainable transportation, and implementing afforestation and reforestation projects. Mitigation efforts also encompass carbon capture and storage technologies, waste reduction, and sustainable land management practices.
Adaptation:
Adaptation focuses on building resilience to the changing climate by preparing for and responding to its impacts. This involves developing strategies to protect communities, ecosystems, and economies from the adverse effects of climate change, such as extreme weather events, sea-level rise, and shifting precipitation patterns. Adaptation initiatives may include creating climate-resilient infrastructure, implementing water management solutions, and enhancing disaster preparedness and response.
International Cooperation:
Climate action requires global collaboration, as climate change knows no borders. International agreements like the Paris Agreement play a central role in uniting countries around shared goals to limit global temperature rise and enhance adaptive capacity. Nations commit to setting emission reduction targets, regularly reporting progress, and cooperating on technology transfer and financial support to vulnerable countries.
Sustainable Development:
Climate action is intertwined with sustainable development, emphasizing the need to balance economic growth with environmental stewardship and social equity. Integrating climate considerations into development planning ensures that efforts to address climate change also uplift communities, promote clean technologies, and foster a green economy.
Public Awareness and Advocacy:
Raising public awareness and fostering a sense of urgency about climate change is crucial. Education campaigns, grassroots movements, and advocacy efforts help mobilize individuals, communities, and governments to take meaningful action. Youth activists, scientists, and civil society organizations play a pivotal role in driving the climate agenda forward.
