Earth hour does a good job putting into context just how much energy we use without almost even thinking about it. Just a small change in habits (not impacting lifestyle) can have significant impact on the environment.

Yeah i followed it too… i guess its the old man and oyster story. Once a man was throwing washed up oysters into the sea where they belonged and where they shud’ve been in that season. His friend asked how many are you gonna throw back in? there are millions, how much ever you throw…its gonna make no difference overall. He replied looking at the oyster in his hand “It’ll make a difference to him”.

Incidentally, some time ago, you had posted about saving water. The less water we use for everything the more we save on electricity to pump water to overhead storages.

I switched off my lights during Earth Hour and I do so on a regular basis. I key point is that last one you made, switching off electronic devices when not using them. It’s so easy, but so many people leave everything on, even when they are not using them. This goes for lights as well. I just don’t get why people leave lights on all throughout their house even though they can only be in one room at a time.
