WWF South Africa partners with SANBI hosting an outdoor movie night under the stars at the Walter Sisulu Botanical Garden.
Celebrating Earth Hour by being in the presence of nature gave residents a sense of understanding towards the importance of Earth Hour on March 23.
“This year WWF is looking forward to people coming together for nature and take a day to appreciate the environment . We have not had any physical events for a while so we are hoping that they can interact with us and give them a full sense of excitement of what WWF is about. We invited people to do their one-hour action for nature and log it on our website in hopes to have the biggest contribution to earth hour this year,” says Pedzi Gozo, the Head of Communications for WWF South Africa.
As the sun set, the event started, and people enjoyed a relaxing meditation from the lovely Itta Roussos who aligned everyone’s chakras with nature. The host, WWF, joined by the Director of Marketing and Communications of SANBI, Nontsikelelo Mpulo, and CoJ spokesperson Lebogang Molefe gave a brief speech on the significance of the event.
