EarthHour

EarthHour

This is to remind one and all that today, the whole world will be commemorating the Earth Hour by switching off all lights for one hour from 8.30 pm local time.

Wherever you are on this planet of ours, this symbolism will let our leaders know that we are very serious about tackling the environmental crises facing our terra firma. More than the symbolism, it will save big bucks in electricity costs and carbon emissions, though insignificant compared to the scle of actual action needed to tackle the impending challenges: climate change, vanishing habitats and species, poluution and so on.
