<p>Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo dimmed the lights on the city’s most famous monument for an hour starting at 8.30pm local time. The tower’s lights normally dominate the Paris skyline after dusk.</p>
<p>French President Emmanuel Macron has campaigned to “Make Our Planet Great Again”, but has faced criticism from those who say his efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions target the poor.</p>
<p>Earth Hour events have spread to more than 180 countries since the movement started in 2007.</p>
