ACCD will participate in Earth Hour by switching off the lights at its headquarters tomorrow, Saturday, for one hour. This emphasizes the importance of this event and contributes to reducing environmental degradation and climate change that threatens our planet. It also aligns with ACCD’s ongoing efforts to raise awareness and enhance knowledge about the importance of combating climate change, which is a matter of life for everyone, especially children.
Earth Hour is the largest global environmental movement, launched in 2007 through the symbolic act of 'turning off lights' around the world. This initiative aims to raise awareness about environmental issues impacting the planet. Amid the current climate crisis, it has become imperative to intensify efforts to take positive actions toward protecting and saving our earth.
