Meru Valley Resort Director Edwin Tan, explained that the resort is taking a different approach to this year’s celebrations to provide a safer experience for the community, he said: “Staying connected as a community and looking for positive ways we can contribute to nature is more important than ever.
“Earth Hour has always been about the power of people helping nature, and while we may not be able to get together in large groups, we can still symbolically stand together across the world, from our own homes.
“Although we don’t like to stand still in this neighbourhood so we’ve mixed things up by getting people outside to run or walk, dancing at home with Zumba or a more relaxed candlelit dinner at The Dome.”
By participating in Earth Hour 2021, you’ll be showing your support for nature and our planet. Encourage your friends and family to participate in our virtual events. You can hashtag #MeruEarthHour and share your photos for a chance to win surprise goodies.
Every last Saturday of March, Earth Hour spotlights the importance of nature by going dark.
