Earth Hour in My house

29 march 2008, 8pm sharp, an extraordinary moment has happened across the globe, including the place which i am staying right now, UM tzu ching house. Remarkably, this extraordinary moment actually was achieved by a single ordinary action: just turn off your light gently. But the most extraordinary element for this ordinary action was: every single individual did the same action, that specific time and date!! Incredible! This great event has been named "Earth Hour 2008", according to the statistic, there are more than 30 million of population from 350 cities across the world had contributed in achieving for this wonderful moment, honorably, i was one of them.

"Massive blackout" in my house.... for sake of Earth...

In fact, there were not many neighbor houses joined this spectacular event, they were even uninformed of it. This is due to lack of environmental awareness in Malaysia. Nonetheless, i was quite surprised when i realized that there were two ASEAN cities, i.e. Manila and Bangkok were listed in the partner cities of Earth Hour 2008, so Malaysia government and people have to put on much effort to strengthen the awareness of environmental protection in our society. Ok, lets show you guys a video which i made for this Earth Hour 2008, enjoy it...
