March 29, 2020: Mobilizing Globally for EARTH HOUR 2020

Dear Friends:

Greetings!  I hope this email finds you and your family healthy and safe.  As the global COVID-19 pandemic has unfolded over these last days and weeks, we are in need of connection and solidarity as a way of cultivating our courage, resilience, hope, and awareness of the love all around us. 

As people living on Earth at this time in history we are committed:

• Taking action to end the COVID-19 pandemic and save as many lives as possible;
• Taking action to ensure the survival and flourishing of all of humanity, and our natural world–for ourselves and for all future generations in the face of the climate emergency;  
• Joining forces with people in our life and around the World to build movements to end the COVID-19 & climate emergencies;
• Living and collaborating with the spirit of unity, solidarity, compassion, justice and revolutionary love as we aim for victory in these quests.  

To demonstrate our commitments and solidarity with others:

Please join us in mobilizing globally for EARTH HOUR 2020 invites you to switch off your lights for an hour on Saturday, March 28, 2020 at 8:30 pm, local time. For additional action opportunities, please go to: www.earthhour.org

Please share plans for EARTH HOUR 2020, March 28. Please share your ideas for future actions in April 2020 in recognition of Earth Day and beyond and send 2-3 photos, videos, and stories about your experiences with Earth Hour 2020 by emailing: 30minlightsout@gmail.com

Yours sincerely,
