Correct Answer: 2 and 3 only. Earth Hour is a worldwide movement related to organization of planets which was organized by World Wide Fund for Nature; hence it is not initiated by UNEP and UNESCO, so statement 1 is incorrect. Statement 2 is correct as this event is held across the world once in an year during end of March from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. which encourages individual, communities, households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights towards commitment to planet earth. Statement 3 is also correct as this movement moves up alertness regarding the climate change and initiate people to take steps to save planet. Since both statements 2 and 3 are correct, so the correct option is C.
