earth hour: a success


After several weeks of anticipation, Earthlings proved to be worthy of being residents in this planet. Me, Andz and my Mom were outside when the clock striked 8:30. We were mobiling along the streets of the metro and I noticed how everything is dimmed. Most of the lights that are present are those coming from the head and tail lights of vehicles. Even huge establishments such as popular malls gave their full support to the ocassion. When we got home, almost all of the houses here in our village,. including our own, showcased their votes by opting for darkness even for just an hour or so.

Philippines ranked no. 1 in the list of countries with the most number of cities involved in this year's event against climate change. Greece came in second, followed by Australia.--the country that started the movement last 2007.

I'm sure Mother Nature is wearing a pretty huuuuge smile on her face right now.
