Three
major malls in North Metro Manila joined the global observance of Earth Hour on
March 28, switching off non-essential lights and hosting activities that drew
communities into a shared call for environmental action.
At
SM City Grand Central, the annual
lights-off moment transformed into a Neon Dance Party, where shoppers gathered
in dimmed spaces and took part in a high-energy celebration that underscored
collective action for the planet.
In
SM City Valenzuela, visitors
participated in a bottle painting workshop, turning used containers into
decorative pieces. The activity highlighted simple and creative ways to promote
sustainability while engaging mallgoers of all ages.
SM Center
Sangandaan also took part
in the synchronized switch-off, joining millions worldwide in the symbolic
gesture that has become a yearly reminder of environmental responsibility.
Beyond
the lights-off hour from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., the malls encouraged eco-friendly
habits through green retail offerings, recycling drives, and eco activities
such as arts sessions.
Observed
in cities across the globe, Earth Hour continues to serve as a platform for
communities and businesses to participate in small but meaningful steps toward
sustainability.
