Default hour and time

"Lights were switched off across the nation as Australians marked Earth Hour – the global call to action against climate change."

Hi,
It's an old and persistent doubt.
Why is it "Earth Hour" instead of "Earth Time"?
Which situations should I always use "hour" in place of "time"?
Thanks.
