Please let do our part in saving our one &
only 'HOME'. Just 1 hour can contribute
a lot for our EARTH.
On Saturday, March 28, 2009, at 8:30 pm, I am taking
part in Earth Hour, a global event in which millions of people will turn out
their lights to make a statement of concern about our planet and climate
change. I want to invite you to join, too!
Sponsored by World Wildlife Fund, Earth Hour
got started just two years ago and is now the largest event of its kind in the
world. Last year, more than 50 million participated and the lights went out at
the Empire State Building, the Golden
Gate Bridge, the Sydney Opera House and
the Coliseum in Rome, just to name a
few.
This year, Earth Hour will
be even bigger. Already 250 cities in 74 countries have agreed to take part including
Las Vegas, Los Angeles,
Moscow, Hong Kong, Mumbai, Shanghai
and Mexico City.
And right here in Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur and several
other cities will be turning out our lights, too.
But Earth Hour isn't just for big cities. Anyone can participate. To get a better sense
of the event, check out this video at http://youtube.com/earthhourmalaysia
Participating in Earth Hour is easy, fun and
free. I hope you will join me for this amazing event. To sign up, visit http://www.earthhour.org/malaysiawhere you'll learn more including ways
you can spread the word about Earth Hour, plus creative things to do when the
lights go out in case you need inspiration!
Let's show the world Malaysians are united in
the fight against global warming. Please pass this note along to anyone you think might
want to take part. Let's all come together and switch off our lights on March
28 at 8:30 – 9.30 pm.
