answer to each of the following questions from 27 to 31

Earth Hour is organised by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and it’s a big event usually at the end of

March every year. In this evening, people “go dark” - that is, switch off lights in their homes, schools and

businesses all at the same time for one hour. Earth Hour started in Australia in 2007, when 2.2 million people in

Sydney turned off all unnecessary lights for an hour. Since then, it has grown into an international event, and

many countries around the world have taken part. Famous buildings that have gone dark for Earth Hour include

the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, the Houses of Parliament

and Buckingham Palace in London, the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Forbidden City in Beijing and New York’s

Empire State Building. The idea is to raise awareness of environmental issues and call for action to protect

nature, so that people enjoy healthy, happy and sustainable lives now and in the future. It’s true that switching

off the lights for just one hour saves only a small amount of power. But this is only the beginning. On one level,

joining Earth Hour makes people think about the problem of climate change and what we can do in everyday life

to protect nature. The logo of Earth Hour is ‘60+’. The number 60 is for the 60 minutes of Earth Hour, and the

plus invites people to continue taking action even after Earth Hour is finished. In fact, people who join Earth

Hour say that taking part makes them want to do more for the environment. The climate activist Greta Thunberg

says that ‘Earth Hour is every hour of every day.’
