Reminder: Earth Hour

I'm sacrificing some sleep time just to put this entry up, but it's for a meaningful cause - I don't mind. Warning... Preaching session ahead...

So to my friends or anyone out there who chances upon this, it is 29th March 2008 tomorrow and at 8pm, it is Earth Hour.

Do turn off your lights and other electrical appliances if not in use at 8pm for an hour in a bid to help reduce annual emission... Do your part to save Mother Earth.

But, you can do more than just an hour - make Earth Hour an everyday thing, part of your everyday life.

One thing I have tried to do is to not turn on my computer at all if I don't really need it. Dare to click on "Shut down" on your computers or laptop if you really don't have to use them (though I know it's kind of hard for students these days to do so, but I'm trying my best everyday too).

In these days when undergraduates always stay up late to study, lights in rooms are always turned on. So, make your life a luxury if you can, sleep early hehe. Wake earlier the next morning to study, if you don't have early lessons, with the Sun giving you natural light.

Although Singapore is not one of the participating cities in Earth Hour 2008, all of us belong to Mother Earth. So let us do our part too.
