WWF-SA to shine light on climate change this Earth Hour
WWF-SA plans to address climate change as part of this year's Earth Hour campaign, encouraging all South Africans to take action.
"We know that awareness leads to action and action leads to change which is why we are throwing down the gauntlet to all South Africans to take individual or group actions that collectively translate into meaningful impact," says the organisation.
Local rapper ProVerb, 5FM presenter Catherine Grenfell, businesswoman Lorna Maseko, and Proteas’ fast bowler Dale Steyn have all committed to suporting Earth Hour 2016.
To get involved, go to www.earthhour.org.za and state how you intend to play your part in addressing climate change.
“Collective action is effective and inspiring. The switch off of lights, which this year happens from 8:30-9:30pm on Saturday, 19 March 2016, is a simple act which symbolises unity and a common desire for change. We call on all South Africans to take part,” says Morné du Plessis, CEO of WWF South Africa.
