Earth Hour 2023 will be supported by SM Supermalls and SM Cares

As the company reaffirms its dedication to environmental stewardship, SM Supermalls and its corporate social responsibility arm SM Cares will join the rest of the world in observing Earth Hour on March 25.

The theme of this year's Earth Hour is "creating the Biggest Hour for Earth," and those who wish to take part in the worldwide event are urged to do more than simply turn off their lights for one hour.

Ever since the first Earth Hour event took place in the Philippines in 2008, SM Supermalls has backed the WWF and the organization. Customers, tenants, and staff at SM malls across the country are once again urged to "Give an Hour for Earth" as SM Supermalls participates in the annual Global Lights Switch Off on March 25 from 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM.

The World Wildlife Fund's Virtual Earth Hour Run, a self-paced run supported by SM Cares, will also begin on this day and run from March 25 to April 30, 2023. The run supports SM Supermalls' initiative to support "Earth Hour, Any Hour," as participants are inspired to live sustainably by running and winning prizes along the way.

Participants may sign up here. Participants can sign up here and use the hashtags #BiggestHourForEarth and #EarthHourVirtualRun to post their stops at SM malls while tagging SM Cares and WWF.

In addition to these efforts, SM Supermalls has been supporting the global green movement by reducing its carbon footprint through a number of initiatives, from responsible energy use to funding for renewable energy.

The largest mall chain in the nation, SM Supermalls, has a corporate social responsibility division called SM Cares. It is in charge of programs that support community growth and sustainability, including the Bike-Friendly SM initiative and programs for women and nursing mothers, people with disabilities, senior citizens, children, and youth.

Additionally, SM has received recognition for going above and beyond the requirements of RA7920, the law that governs electrical engineers and electricians' practice, licensing, and registration.
