Marcos on Earth Hour: Conserve energy, limit fuel useMANILA, Philippines — As the world faces oil supply concerns and price spikes caused by the Middle East conflict, President Marcos called for responsible and sustainable energy use during the observance of the Earth Hour yesterday. “Earth Hour reminds us that how we use energy affects us all and shows not just our ways, but also the kind of future that we choose to build for our nation and our planet,” he added. Marcos said the simple act of turning off lights for one hour goes a long way. He encouraged Filipinos to participate in the cause and be inspired by this year’s theme, “Switch on habits for Earth.”“May the true meaning of Earth Hour be part of our lives starting tonight. Let it guide our habits, inform our actions and inspire cooperation among our communities towards responsible and sustainable energy use.
