Climate change is the biggest environmental threat to life on this planet - including our own. WWF-Canada has created the Living Planet Community to help Canadians make changes in their lifestyles to reduce their carbon footprint on the planet, and to encourage others to do the same. Small steps, when taken together, can add up to great carbon savings. Already this group of people have saved over 100 million kilograms of greenhouses gases - the equivalent of taking over 45,500 homes off the grid for one year, or over 16,600 cars off the road for a year. Join to be a part of the solution.

WWF, the global conservation organization, created Earth Hour to demonstrate that everyone can be a part of the climate solution and that hundreds of millions of people want action on climate change now.

Earth Hour began in 2007 in Sydney, Australia and quickly grew to a global phenomenon. By 2009, in its third year, Earth Hour grew to over 4,000 cities, including 73 national capitals and nine of the world's 10 most populated cities. In Canada, over half of the Canadian adult population (over 10 million people) switched off their lights!

As an international conservation organization WWF is uniquely positioned to tackle climate change. Around the globe, WWF has built an enviable reputation for conservation. Thanks to a combination of science, partnerships, and public mobilization, we achieve results that count - now, and for decades to come.
