Earth Hour… Will you do something?
Even Aiden knows that it’s Earth Hour on the 28th, this coming Saturday and he is very excited about it. After he came back from school on Monday he is constantly talking about it. I thought he is excited about the idea of turning off all the lights and a chance to light up some candles and play with torch lights… But no. When I quizzed him further about the matter he gave me a briefing on what the earth is going through and what it’s doing to the whales and polar bears and his other furry friends… And he ended with, “SO, Mommy.. we all must do our part to turn off the lights on the 28 my lau shi (teacher) said!” Ofcourse he is excited about the candles and the whole jazz.. but I told him that best we use less of those things too.
So, even Aiden is excited about saving Earth, our only home. What will you do about it? This is a serious matter now. Notice how the weather has changed for all of us. It’s really so unpredictable now. First time this year we had rain during Chinese New Year. It never rains during CNY.. it’s suppose to be the hottest time of the year for us Malaysian. You may call it our ‘summer’ although we technically don’t experience the 4 seasons. And it has not stopped raining ever since… What is it telling us?
So this coming Saturday… Turn off your lights!!! (or anything else that uses electricity) If you are not doing anything else for ‘Her’ (Mother Nature) just do this for one hour…
