For those of you who want to be entertained, switch on your computer/laptop/mobile phone so you can enjoy #EarthHourLive from 8.30pm AEDT from the comfort of your own couch! Earth Hour will live stream an entertaining line-up of musicians, comedians and special guests.
BUT if that's not your thing, switch off the lights, switch off electrical items, dig out the candles, torches, lanterns or glow sticks and join people all around the world doing doing #SwitchOff for Earth Hour.
