  5. WWF's Earth Hour Our aims for Earth Hour 2013 • We want a brighter future for our friends and family • As we switch off our lights, we are focusing on the kind of energy we use – those used to power our cars, Xboxes and laptops • Our planet needs us to move away from dirty fossil fuels to renewable sources of energy that work with nature, like solar and wind power

  6. WWF's Earth Hour Why should YOU take part? • By getting involved you are becoming a part of something to make that change a reality, not just for one hour but beyond! • Everyone can make a difference to help save our planet, and children have a key role to play as this is your future • It’s also a fun way to get together with friends and family to show you care about the Earth

  8. WWF's Earth Hour How will YOU spend your Hour of Darkness!? • We’ve had some great suggestions this year, such as: • Tell each other scary stories under torchlight • Glow in the dark face painting • Try writing your name in sparklers (be careful!) • Watch your favourite movie with your best mate

  9. WWF's Earth Hour Things you can do at your school • Celebrate with a “Wear it bright” day where you come to school in your very brightest clothes! • Hold your own Earth Hour where you switch off all your lights and whiteboards! • Go outside and do 60 minutes of activities in nature – go for a walk, tidy up your growing area, do a tree survey, look for signs of spring! • Each class could do an energy audit and think about how you could save energy! • Create some posters to tell your parents and carers all about Earth Hour!
