The governor of Bangkok has asked people in Thailand to participate in the “Earth Hour” initiative by turning off their lights for an hour tomorrow.
Chadchart Sittipunt stated that the World Wide Fund for Nature's campaign has designated March 23 as the day when people worldwide should switch off their lights to help decrease the effects of climate change.
About 7,000 cities in 190 countries are anticipated to join in. In Thailand, the hour will commence at 8:30pm.
Last year, supporters in over 190 countries and territories contributed over 410,000 hours to the planet, according to the Earth Hour website. The message encourages people to make the #BiggestHourForEarth even larger this year by spending 60 minutes benefiting the planet while enjoying something they love.
