Earth Hour 2011

For the third year in a row, I participated in Earth Hour and turned off the lights.  I was glad to see that some of my other friends were also participating, and raising awareness about saving energy.

My apartment had been dark since late afternoon, and I decided to go for a quick meal at a neighborhood restaurant before the appointed time.  By 8:30pm I was out of the restaurant and out in the streets.  I chose to spend the next hour strolling around my neighborhood, under the stars as some would say.  OK, so I didn't exactly see any stars... and there was street light almost everywhere I went, but you get the drift.

I think I've been pretty good last year about conserving energy, and doing my best to tweak my lifestyle to a more sustainable one.  One can always do more, and I will strive to do more in the coming year.
