Before you decide or make up your mind, let me explain to you why do we need to vote for earth?
Earth Hour is WWF’s program which is to demand action on climate change. It’s a way for every one of us to send a clear message to our leaders that we want immediate and effective action on climate change to be taken. This is the time where people of the world regardless of the nationalities, races, religions, ethnics etc would unite for the sake of the future generation.
The earth is heating. It happens everywhere. From the North Pole to China, from China to even Malaysia. We need to slow the global warming. Or else the climate would change rapidly without a break.
It’s a fact that we are all concerned about the heating Earth. Thus, by switching off the light for one hour, you are actually voting for Earth. Your vote will be presented to the world leaders who will gather at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, December 2009.
During the said Conference, the leaders will be discussing about the official government policies with regard to this matter. The new government policies will replace Kyoto Protocol (agreement between the Industrialized Countries as to the carbon emissions etc) which will expire soon. Hence, this is the chance where your voice would be heard by the world leaders.
According to WWF, 1 billion votes are needed from us. So let’s do our part. Vote Earth. Every vote counts. Our vote will make a difference. Let us slow down the climate change. Take charge of our planet. We love our planet Earth. This is our bit, VOTE EARTH.
Remember, YOUR LIGHT SWITCH IS YOUR VOTE

kudos to you ;)
i, irda and tunna went up to bukit ampang, to view the whole of kuala lumpur when it was darkened when most of us switched off the lights..it wasnt that obvious, but klcc and kl tower were very supportive. they shut the unnecessary lights, business has got to go one though, making each of their silhouette to appear within other blocks of buildings. maybank tower, AM bank building, and some other prominent buildings took part as well.
we waited until 9.30pm. the ultimatum was when the first two tall buildings began to appear fully, lights were switched on again, as they always blink with brilliant colorful lights.we were glad that we were there, but the road was really packed and jammed. thousands of people had the same idea as ours..aha apparently ours was not that original. we were glad though, knowing many of us cared to vote for the mother earth..
I have to say this...
