Join the Green Campus Initiative for Earth Hour

On Saturday, 25 March 2017, the Green Campus Initiative hosts Earth Hour 2017 at UCT. You are invited to join them on the lawns in front of Graça Machel residence on middle campus from 19:00 to 22:00.

Earth Hour is held worldwide and encourages individuals, households, businesses and communities to turn their lights off from 20:30 to 21:30 to support climate action and to make a commitment to the planet in an era of global warming. Join like-minded individuals in the fight to #ChangeClimateChange.

Earth Hour is organised by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). The campaign began in 2007 as a lights-off event in Sydney, Australia. It’s now a worldwide campaign involving more than 7 000 cities, and taps into a wide range of environmental issues.
