Lights off, candles on. No, we’re not talking Hygge. We’re talking Earth Hour – those magical 60 minutes a year where people across the world flick off the switch in honor of climate justice.

This year Earth Hour turns 10, so light the (birthday) candles and get celebrating. Here are six ways to make the most of your time in the dark:

  1. Take a Candlelit Bath

    Turn your phone off. Put some soothing music on. Lie back and soak in all the good you’re doing for the planet. Lovely.

  2. Have a Digital Detox

    Go one step further and switch off totally. The 5:2 Digital Diet is a great way to cut down your screen time and Earth Hour is the perfect excuse to kick it off. Check out these handy tips for getting started.

  3. Listen to Your Favourite Album

    Some records were made to be listened to without distraction. Put your headphones in and rediscover the magic of your favourite artist.

  4. Galaxy Gaze

    When the lights go down, the stars come out. Grab a blanket, fill up a flask and marvel at the cosmos.

  5. Try Out Flavour Roulette

    One of life’s harder decisions is deciding which flavour to devour – trust us, we’ve been there. This Earth Hour, take advantage of lights out and let fate do the hard work for you – grab some tubs, pop the lids and give your spoon a whirl. Who knows – you might even discover a new favourite.

  6. Be a Big Kid

    Remember Murder in the Dark? Best. Game. Ever. Get some pals together and relive the good old days. And if that’s not your style, let us introduce you to torchlight limbo...

Earth Hour is Saturday 25th March, 8.30pm (local time). Find out more and sign up here!
