Today at 20:30 our time Earth Hour will happen. It is an initiative that dates back to 2007, when more than 2.2 million households and businesses in the Australian city of Sydney turned off their lights for one hour. Since then, we commemorate this event every year on March 25 in different parts of the world, including Slovakia. Although this is an effective way of drawing attention to climate problems, just drawing attention is no longer enough. We need to act now.

The fact is that human civilization brought our planet to its current state. And we are the ones who should turn it from the wrong course back to the path of balance. Scientists sound the alarm every day that unless we change our behavior now, we will not reverse the disaster. According to current forecasts According to the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), we are currently on the way to a warming of 3.2 °C compared to the pre-industrial era. And that's the problem.

The future of the planet and future generations is not indifferent to us at Živé.sk either. We realize that it will not work without long-term solutions to reverse the climate catastrophe. That's why we regularly publish articles or interviews with experts, in which you can read about various options for saving energy, but also about greener ways of obtaining it, which should quickly replace the burning of fossils.
