Welcome to the First International Scout Family

Earth Hour started in 2007 in Sydney, Australia when 2.2 million homes and businesses turned their lights off for one hour to make their stand against climate change. Only a year later and Earth Hour had become a global sustainability movement with more than 50 million people across 35 countries participating. Global landmarks such as the, Sydney Harbour Bridge, The CN Tower in Toronto, The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, and Rome’s Colosseum, all stood in darkness, as symbols of hope for a cause that grows more urgent by the hour.

In March 2009, hundreds of millions of people took part in the third Earth Hour. Over 4000 cities in 88 countries officially switched off to pledge their support for the planet, making Earth Hour 2009 the world’s largest global climate change initiative.

Earth Hour 2010 takes place on Saturday 27 March at 8.30pm (local time) and is a global call to action to every individual, every business and every community throughout the world. It is a call to stand up, to take responsibility, to get involved and lead the way towards a sustainable future. Iconic buildings and landmarks from Europe to Asia to the Americas will stand in darkness. People across the world from all walks of life will turn off their lights and join together in celebration and contemplation of the one thing we all have in common – our planet. So sign up now and let’s make 2010 the biggest Earth Hour yet!.

It’s Showtime! Show the world what can be done.

إن السابع و العشرين من مارس سيبقى محطة تسمح بالإمعان و تفكر في جليل خلق الله ألى هي هذه الأرض التي استخلف فيها الإنسان وكان منذ الأزل يستغل خيراتها ويستنزف طاقاتها التي حباها الله بها، فكان حري بكل إنسان مهما كان شأنه بصيغة الكونية لما في الكلمة من معنى أن يجعل لحياته معنى بتركه على الأقل بصبة خير للأجيال القادمة بإذن الله تعالى فليكن هذا اليوم هو الإنطلاق إلى تحقيق مشاريع واقعية تسهم في الحفاظ على هذا الإرث العظيم الذي لا يمكن في الحقيقة أن يؤدي الإنسان حقها ما سعى من خير في الأرض لأنها أعطتنا كمخلوق مستخلف فيها الشيء الكثير ولازال.. فلنجعل هذ اليوم هو يوم أرض حقيقة وصدقا لا للدعاية أو الرياء و الله الموفق لما فيه خير الإنسانية جمعاء
فراح كشاف
بارك الله فيك على كلمتك بالفعل سيكون تفكر فى الله هذه الساعه
