Dubai along with other cities in the world will observe Earth Hour on March 19, Saturday from 8.30pm to 9.30pm. The goal is to support global efforts to limit temperature increases to within 1.5 degrees Celsius as set forth in the United Nations Climate Change Conference, in Paris in November last year.

Earth Hour Online

Taking Earth hour into the digital space and social media, the EWS-WWF organisers in Dubai encourage residents to contribute to the cause online.



Individuals and organisations in the UAE are encouraged to sign up to donate their social feed by logging on to EarthHourUAE English or EarthHourUAE Arabic.
