Make or Break Gonna Make It On The EARTH HOUR

Here in my place, the clock says 7:05 PM, means less than an hour and a half before the lights off. We’ll be in the dark later. We will eat dinner early tonight. Usually we ate around 8:30, tonight, I am just waiting for my fish to cook and off we go to the table. Hopefully our helper would finish all her chores before 8;30. At 8:30, I am signing off and urge you to do so.

A VOTE FOR EARTH: VOTE FOR YOU: VOTE FOR OUR KIDS AND THEIR FUTURE

Global Election: Flying Voters Are Welcone

FIRST GLOBAL ELECTION: WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

Take action
Join the movement
Switch off on Saturday for an hour, local time, 8:30 PM

Switching all your unnecessary lights and appliances will make our Earth a better place to live. I believe this campaign does not say, you need to live in darkness and discomfort for one hour. I think when it says unnecessary, those are the electronics we are not using or appliances we can live without for an hour. What are the small things you can do?

Don’t charge your gadgets during this hour

If you can’t turn off your computer, why not turn off its monitor?

If you are afraid of the dark, why not turn off your street lights instead?

You can delay turning on your air con.

You can also try not to open your refrigerator.

If you are cooking with rice cooker, cook early.

These are small and simple things but if we ALL participate, it can make a BIG difference!

So again, ARE YOU SWITCHING OFF?

and yeah, if you have more than two addresses, flying voters are more than welcome!

Earth Hour: Are You Switching OFF?

EG of Earthlingorgeous posted about this, then saw it in Chuvaness, then at Makoy’s The Certified Pinoy Blogger. To tell you the truth, I don’t know anything about it. Upon reading about it on EG’s I searched a little and understood a little. I know a lot of us does not fully understand it (my hubby too..) and so I will try to shed some light.. err.. convince you to turn your lights off on the EARTH HOUR..

The tag lines on this campaign is: VOTE FOR EARTH or the first Global Election..kinda weird huh.. yeah i was really weirded out when I first saw the tag lines..Vote for what? against what?

Well it seems that this year’s Earth Hour as been transformed as the first Global Election,and the two competing party is EARTH and Global warming. On the last Saturday of March at 8:30 PM,local time, turn off your light if you are in favor of Earth. This campaign aims to have a billion vote for Earth. The 1 billion vote for Earth will be presented in the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009.A conference of world leaders, where one of the objectives is to decide weather to take action against global warming.

EARTH HOUR started in Sidney, Australia n 2007 where they turn off their switches for one hour, saving a lot of energy. The numbers of people participating has grown over the years. This year, EARTH HOUR is more than just saving energy, it is turned into SAVING OUR PLANET activity.

All those in favor of EARTH,

TURN IT OFF!
