Earth Hour, 27 Mar, 8.30pm

Hi folks,

 

It's been a year since the last hype and happening Green Nite event called Earth Hour was launched in Malaysia.

 

I think thus far, it has created a wave of awareness and subsequent green activities and campaign in our country.

 

I feel despite the hypes and some remarks that it is just an "event", there's no harm at all trying to do something for a good cause and the common heart to do something to make a difference to our Earth. Just bear in mind that we do not create more "rubbish" or other wastages while supporting/engaging in this event! It supposed to be something  Good for this Earth, so besides shutting down the lights, we should also maintain other green habits which we have been doing like:

• Campaign organizers/sponsors can give goodies bag in "reusable bag" form and not in paperbag
• Less plastic bags/packaging in whatever products produce to commemorate Earth Hour
• Perhaps using LED or energy-saving advertising gadgets/tools/board

Of course, better if we can continue this conscious effort in our daily life to live green and be green rite ;) after Earth Hour as well!

 

Last year, my family had an early celebration for my brother-in-law's whose birthday falls on Apr 1. This year, the children playgroup that my kids are participating organised talks about Green Earth and switch off the light to give the children a feel of the need to conserve electricity to play their part for our Earth. How about you? How did you spent your Earth Hour.No matter what, hope you have fun and have a good time!

Let's support the campaign and maintain a healthy lifestyle and habits for a better Earth for our future generation!

 

CHeers!
