      mathsparks:

      I cant help but deduce that not many people share our enthusiasm to do something, no matter how small, to signal our commitment to mother earth.

      No worries, Rome wasnt built in a day. We'll continue to convince others whenever we can.
      :celebrate: to your enthusiasm n effort put in,
      however small or insignificant.

      When will we ever learn?
      till every tree is chopped down?
      till all the fishes have died?
      till all the animals have perished?
      till our children's children know not the warmth of cuddling a puppy or a kitten?
      till the sky has turned perpetually grey?
      till we can no longer drink straight from the rivers n lakes?
      when will we ever learn?

        My kids were very enthusiastic. Kept reminding us it was time to switch off the lights.


        My girl cannot survive without a fan. When I told her \"Earth Hour\" meant no fan, too, she said \"no fan, never mind\". :!: I was so surprised with her enthusiasm.

        My boy kept nagging at us when our lights were still on at 8.31 pm.

        Since the kids were so on, we had better switch off the lights, etc. So, it was total darkness for us at home. We looked out of the window to \"admire\" the scenary. ๐Ÿ˜‰

            I switched off computer.

            I switched off lights from all rooms except kitchen (as my MIL is still doing something :P).
            Did not on any aircon but 1 fan in the living room. :oops:

              Don't despair mathsparks, we participated by going out for dinner at that time, so everything was off in the house and we used the public facilities during that hour. :celebrate:


              Your efforts were not wasted.

                We were having dinner at food republic @ vivo. They switch off about 50% of the lights, except e stalls lights. Out of curiosity on how Nat Geo would support such event, we went down to have a look. Its dark dark!! They claimed off 50% of lights but i guess should be more. All the LCD tvs are off too. For us, we contributed by not at home. Hee hee


                hubby was saying, there should be a campagne on no car for 1 hr :lol:
