Slated for the evening of March 23, 2024, between 8:30 and 9:30 PM, the global Earth Hour movement has seen the town of Tagoloan join forces in a symbolic act of solidarity for the environment.

This hour-long event champions the conservation of nature and calls for urgent action to safeguard the planet.

A proud member of the fraternal Order of Philippines Eagles under the Tagoloan Lady Eagles Club, Eagle Mayor Emano-Elipe extends a special invitation to fellow Eagles and all Tagoloanons. 

She encourages them to partake in Earth Hour by switching off non-essential lights and appliances, thereby contributing to the global effort to protect Earth.

Eagle Mayor Nadya emphasizes that participating in Earth Hour is a simple yet powerful declaration of our dedication to environmental stewardship. 

She believes that through collective action, even small efforts like reducing electricity usage can make a significant impact.

According to Mayor Elipe, Earth Hour is not merely a symbolic event but a testament to our responsibility towards future generations. 

She asserts that the act of conserving energy for just one hour can reflect a broader commitment to ecological preservation.

Through concerted efforts, Mayor Elipe envisions a community united in the cause of environmental conservation, crucial for securing a sustainable future. 

She calls on every individual to embrace their role in this mission, for the sake of our children and all subsequent generations.

As part of a global movement, Tagoloan’s participation under Mayor Elipe’s leadership is a call to action for everyone to contribute towards the well-being of our planet. 

She concludes by rallying the community to raise awareness and collaborate for the protection of the environment.

Globally, Earth Hour, commemorated annually on March 24 at 8:30 PM, represents a moment when the world stands together with the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) to address environmental challenges. 

Beyond turning off lights, the event serves as a catalyst for change, inspiring various activities that promote conservation and sustainability.

As Earth Hour 2024  just happened  today, the Philippines is geared up to address critical environmental concerns such as biodiversity loss and climate change. 

With Manila hosting this year’s Earth Hour, Mayor Lacuna-Pangan expresses the city’s honor in leading the charge against plastic pollution and emphasizes the capital’s influential role in fostering collective environmental action.
