Earth Hour: Monuments to go dark as 20th edition kicks off
""Currently, the climate crisis is repeatedly pushed into the background in light of the many global challenges. However, it doesn't disappear. On the contrary, it exacerbates many of these crises.""
""With Earth Hour, we are bringing climate action back into the public spotlight. We are making it visible. People care about this issue and it belongs at the very top of the political agenda.""
Earth Hour, celebrated on Saturday, involved landmarks across New Zealand turning off their lights to highlight climate change. Originating in Australia in 2006, the event encourages participation from private homes to major monuments. Notable landmarks like the Sky Tower and New Zealand's parliament building participated.
