Earth Hour 2009 Singapore

It has been a month since my last entry. I took a bet, lost and was banned to pen any entry. Ok, kidding. I was simply too busy, lazy and tired to write.

Anyway, Earth Hour 2009, which was on the 28 Mar, has passed. So how did Singaporeans fare?

A trip down Orchard Road did not show any difference from the other days(or nights). But we had a pleasant surprise at Tiong Bahru Plaza. Shops like The Pasta Shop and Coffee Bean actually made the effort to switch off their lights durin Earth Hour.

We proceeded to the neighbourhood, hoping to capture on video the effect of many lights turning on after Earth Hour. It didn't turn out the way we were hoping for though, but still we did managed to catch a few households switching on their lights after the clock struck 930pm. Probably some of the households got so used to having their lights off that they couldn't be bothered to turn them back on.

Proud of my mum and dad too. They also did their part for Earth Hour.

Verdict of Singapore Earth Hour 2009:

6/10 marks = Not bad but could have been better.

See ya next year in Earth Hour 2010.
