This year, Earth Hour in Australia will celebrate Aussie food and farmers, reminding Australians of the need to tackle global warming for the sake of our rural communities and our supply of fresh, healthy, homegrown food.
All Australians are proud of our farmers for feeding the nation, but they are on the frontline of rising temperatures and extreme weather.
Flooding, drought, fires and changes in pests and weeds are affecting the very farms that supply 93 per cent of the food we eat.
Millions of Australians are expected to take part in Earth Hour at 8.30pm local time on Saturday to show their support for cutting carbon pollution.
