the earth hour

so happy to have joined the world in the observance of earth hour on saturday, march 28th.

my 3-year old martina was so "excited" about it. weeks before THE day, i was already telling her and the entire household about it.

aside from having helped the environment, we also had a great family bonding during that one hour. all of us stayed outside the apartment (but stayed inside the compound); we walked and talked and played and watched others who did not participate :(.

after an hour, i told myself that from now on, i will have an "earth hour" everyday. just my little way of giving back to mother earth.

i was amazed and happy that the big malls and some establishments also took part in helping the environment with their participation in the earth hour. i guess it's really also a matter of information dissemination, a lot of people were more aware of it this time. next should be using recyclable stuff.
