The benefits of Earth Hour

Turning off the lights for an hour may be just a drop in the bucket for saving energy and reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases and other polluting gases caused by power generation. However, when the environmental awareness inspired by this is deeply rooted in people's hearts and transformed into ideas, when ideas are transformed into actions, and when actions become habits, the contribution to global environmental protection will never be limited to numbers.

The impact of climate change on human beings knows no borders. Everyone, rich or poor, is equally vulnerable to climate change. In the fight against climate change, cooperation among governments, individuals and social institutions is very important. Each of us is a villager in the global village. As long as we turn off the lights for an hour, we can make practical contributions to reducing carbon emissions and changing the future of the earth.

"Don't underestimate turning off the lights for an hour," said Hongyi, vice president of Bigen Investment China. "This city is one of the places that use a lot of electricity. If the city can turn off the unnecessary landscape lights for an hour, the energy saved will be a great number. "

"In just 60 minutes, you can actually make a great contribution to the earth, because every time you save 1 kWh, you reduce the emissions of 1 kg of carbon dioxide and 0.03 kg of sulfur dioxide." A WWF volunteer said.
