Community Green Actions

Every year, millions of people across the world pause for a powerful moment of unity. Lights go off. Screens dim. Cities slow down.

For one symbolic hour, people reconnect with something far more important than electricity — our planet.

This global movement is called Earth Hour, and in 2026 it will take place on Saturday, March 28 at 8:30 p.m. local time in every country.

Unlike many global events, Earth Hour does not begin at a single universal time. Instead, it travels around the world across 24 time zones. As the clock strikes 8:30 p.m. in each location, lights switch off and the planet participates in a beautiful rolling wave of environmental solidarity.

From small villages to the world’s greatest cities, the Earth slowly darkens — and the message grows brighter.

The kindergarten and year 6 classes in Iloilo, Philippines conducted a tree-planting activity on 31 March 2023 as part of their personal environment appreciation & learning, and in direct support of www.notjustatree.com advocacy.

Thank you to all the pupils who've been involved & for your valuable action in saving the planet.
