The Earth Hour will be held on March 19

This year, the hour of the earth is scheduled for March 19, from 20:30 to 21:30. Anyone can take part in an international action by switching off all electrical appliances at home at that time.

The Earth Hour has been held for 9 years by the Wildlife Fund, and every year more people and organizations participate in this action. The essence of the event is to remind the world about climate change and draw attention to the problem of excessive electricity consumption. By tradition, the hour of the earth is held on the last Saturday of March, but this year the organizers decided to postpone it for a week.

However, according to some scientists, the benefits of such a campaign are very doubtful, but the damage is obvious, since the voltage spikes in city networks can lead to equipment damage and even accidents at power plants. In a situation with a fairly unstable Montenegrin electricity network, you can only advise to really turn off electrical appliances before the action begins to avoid their breakdowns - Podgorica and some other cities also announced their desire to participate in the Earth Hour.
