Every year Earth Hour people celebrate worldwide on the last Saturday of March. This year #earthhourday2022 will be on March 26th. We would like our Plantly friends to join in by switching off the lights at 8:30 pm. As we join 190 countries and territories, we can take action to ensure a brighter future for all living beings on the planet.
History of Earth Hour Day
The first-ever Earth Hour Day was held in 2007 on March 31. The event was hosted by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) in Sydney, Australia, to show their support for people to take action against climate change.
Over 2 million people and 2,000 businesses switched off their lights for an hour on that day. While the day is a symbolic action of switching off lights, it is more than that. #Earthhourday2022 is a day to drive legislative changes and a positive environmental impact for people to take action for change.
Earth Hour Day Theme: #shapeourfuture
We all have one special hour and have many meaningful ways to spend it. So, if you’re unsure how to spend your evening this #shapeourfutre on March 26th, then look no further! After you switch off your lights, here is how you can spend your hour with family and friends.
Get Close to Nature
Nature is not only there to provide us with food, clean air, or water. No, nature is an essential part of our lives to give us happiness and health. So head outdoors with friends to enjoy the view and get in the fresh air, even if it is in the dark.
Explore a nearby park, natural space, or beach. Or simply sit in your backyard garden to enjoy the peace. You can start gazing right there in your private garden. With your phone, you can capture your experience and share it with friends using #shapeourfuture or #earthhourday2022.
Cook a Meal For Loved Ones
Nothing is more peaceful and inviting than sitting in your garden with family and friends and enjoying a candle-lit dinner. You can dine in the dark this Earth Hour, cooking some enjoyable planet-friendly dishes.
Check out the following foods to make for a healthier planet and you. You can even challenge yourself to cook a meal in 60 minutes without anything getting wasted. You can get the whole family together to choose ingredients out of your veg garden or get them involved to help make dinner.

Spend Time With Family
Spend quality time with loved ones that matter to you the most. You can create special memories with family and friends to create a brighter future for all. You do not need lights to watch a movie, especially in the backyard.
Call loved ones to visit you have not seen in ages. Or, if they cannot make it have a virtual call instead. You can play board games or listen to music to dance the night away. Alternatively, you can get the small ones to read aloud a book.
Learn More About Our Incredible Planet
The first and foremost thing about this year’s #earthhourday2022 is awareness. One of the best ways to up your knowledge this year is to use the hour to learn about the challenges we all face on this incredible planet.
We need to do our best to turn things around. Learn how to become sustainable in your daily life or learn about climate changes and nature loss. You can watch a nature documentary on Our Planet that is free.
Or do an exciting experiment with young ones planting a tree or a plant in that hour.
Give Back to Your Community
The only way we can resolve the challenges we face on our planet is to work together to create empowerment and unity. So, find a local earth hour event in your vicinity to attend with others this year and make a change.
You can volunteer for a nature clean-up, tree planting, upkeep of a community garden, or partake in a recycling project. In addition, you can inspire others to tell your story to shape a brighter future for all.
Get Active
To care for our planet and others, you first need to care for yourself. So start moving and work out by sweating this #shapeourfuture on Earth Hour Day. Go for a night run or cycle or put on the music and dance.
You can do some yoga at candlelight for guidance and medication in your busy life. Or take a walk on the beach or to your outdoor garden space with family and friends. You can even gather the neighbors to start a competition for the hour in the neighborhood to collect trash.

Become Creative with Art
If working out the body is not your thing, you can become creative with your hands and mind. For example, you can do night photography or upcycle a wardrobe in the home. Get the kids together for some glow-in-the-dark painting using non–toxic neon paints.
Or try to do some DIY macrame to create a stunning creation for your indoor plants to display.
Regardless of what you decide to do, we hope our tips inspire you to enjoy Earth Hour Day 2022 with family, friends, and Plantly.
Whether you want to buy, sell or simply reach out to other plant enthusiasts, Plantly is the right place to be!
