7000 cities across 172 countries switched off for an hour on Saturday (March 25) to mark Earth Hour.

It's the tenth anniversary of the event's inception which aims to focus public attention on the issue of climate change and save a few megawatts in the process.

Lights on the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House were switched off in Australia.

In Shanghai, people gathered at the popular tourist destination the Bund, to watch the skyscrapers featuring the Pearl Tower go dark whilst lights on Taiwan's iconic landmark skyscraper Taipei 101 were also put out as part of the global event.

In the Philippines Star Wars fans urged Filipinos to be heroes for the environment as they marched with lightsabers along a blacked-out Manila business district.
