60 minutes for Mother Earth : Earth Hour 2013
There are people who are sceptical about the Earth Hour because they do not see the effect of one hour 'lights out' to our environment. Well, one hour is not really something to crow about, but if more and more people participate, it means that there is an increased awareness of the problems that we are currently facing regarding our environment, such as global warming. And this participation can translate into individual efforts to reduce, recycle and reuse the items around us in order to lessen or prevent the piling up of trash or garbage in our backyard. Earth Hour is a start or a kick off for the younger generation to be active in energy conservation and garbage management. Even if only for this reason, Earth Hour should be continued for the next 500 years. A global activity should be observed yearly to demonstrate a united effort for Mother Earth. So let's all turn off the lights in our homes, turn off televisions, don't use our cars, and just simply sit back and relax on March 23.
