Lights Out

Today while I was promoting the Earth Hour T-shirts at Block A area. A group of girl was passing by when one of them stopped and stare at the different designs on the t-shirt. Her friends took a few step closer only to move back when I go closer and

the following conversation happened...

Me: Interested in the T-shirts? It's only 20 bucks
Her: Owh.. What is the T-shirt for?
Me: It's for Earth Hour. We're trying to spread awareness about Earth Hour. Do you know what's Earth Hour?
Her: uhm.. er.. yea. Off the light wan rite?
Me: haha.. yea.. you know what time? It's 8.30 - 9.30
Her: Morning?
Me: (almost fall down on my knees) Uhm.. haha.. No.. PM. If it's AM even I wouldn't On my lights.
Her: (giggling among her friends)
Me: So are you interested in the T-shirt?
Her: No

and she left with the rest of her friends.

After that brief unproductive conversation, I just realize that there are many people that are still unaware of Earth Hour. They know it existed but doesn't know what it's existent is for. Don't be surprise to find out your neighbour living next door to you doesn't know what the heck is Earth Hour.

For this event to be a hit just like last year's and for the years to come (depending on situation), people have to educate others about Earth Hour. We shouldn't be selfish when it comes to the environment because believe it or not, we live and therefore share the same planet. It's so easy, all you have to do is switch off your lights from 8.30pm - 9.30pm (1 HOUR)! Such simple gesture would mean a lot to the environment as it is a vote for Mother Earth. All you have to do is move your lil fingers with very minimum energy and we're all safe from 2012 doomsday. Spread the word people.

going back to Ipoh first thing in the morning for Cheng Beng. Make sure to check out the vid above, the before-after Earth Hour thing is quite cool. ciao.. ;)
