WWF: Still important with Earth Hour

"For the twelfth time call on Wwf to a dimmed hour – since its inception, environmental issues only become bigger and more important."

"– the Entire campaign is a political signal to our policy makers, " says project leader Cecilia Stenström."

"On Saturday night, off the world the lights for the environment. For the twelfth year in a row, says WWF behind the campaign Earth Hour, which started in Sydney in 2007 and became global a year later."

"this Year's switch-off goes under the hashtag #connect2earth."

"– the Focus of years is simply to show that we belong together with the planet. We can't do without biodiversity and we can't do without a functioning climate, " says Cecilia Stenström, project manager for Earth Hour in Sweden."

"Despite the fact that climate change is on many more lips than they were in 2007, she thinks not that the Earth Hour has played out its role."

"– No, it sends an important signal to our politicians and we must act for the climate and biodiversity. The campaign is more important than today, in fact. Especially considering how last summer looked with extreme drought and fires, not only in Sweden but in many other places in the world. It is high time to act now, " said Stenström."

"She compare the actual hour is collected in a torgdemonstration and stresses the importance of not only extinguish, but also use the time to think,"

"– It is at least as important. In connection with that quenches really sit down and think. "

"Earth Hour starts at 20: 30 on Saturday night."
