Every year at 8:30 p.m. on the last Saturday in March \u2013 this year it\u2019ll be March 26 \u2013 supporters in more than 190 countries and territories come together to take action and raise awareness of the issues facing our only home. Earth Hour is a global movement organized by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). The event is held annually, and it encourages individuals, communities, and businesses to turn off non-essential electrical lights for one hour from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Earth Hour is more than just an hour for Earth: it\u2019s a movement for our own future, for the benefit of people and the planet. And it’s not just a symbol of solidarity, but a catalyst for change, by harnessing the power of the crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until then, here are some gadgets so you can save and monitor electricity consumption at home and that way help the planet. These products will not only benefit the planet, but also your pocket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t
