Earth Hour

Hello there.Yesterday was the Earth Hour day observed b/w 8:30 to 9:30 including our campus(NIT Hamirpur).It is just a step to prevent the Doom’s day or the Apocalypse that we are facing in near future.
Last yr in our campus it was total darkness on the earth hr day, felt like back old days no electricity, no noise.Some people may say what a bullshit; how can people wish a day like that but trust me it feels really good.Finally u get a break from your hectic schedule (in engineering students’ case endless net browsing,downloading etc etc) and can have a little chat over hot topics with friends.I remember the fine old days of my childhood when there was timely power cuts during nights especially during summers.Me and my sis were always so eagerly waiting for that moments so that we could have a break from our studies and have a little chat with neighbours and a little walk in our colony.It was always refreshing and fun.But due to the advancement of human race they don’t even have time to say hello to neighbours, our have a chat even with their kids.So all i want to say is stop rushing ,at least give just an hour for our mother earth.Is it so difficult??knowing that the consequences we are going to face ??The global warming, the exhaustion of natural resources leading to wars, contamination of drinking water, the rising level of sea water and many more.Can’t we even think about saving our earth for our next generation or at least think of preventing it.Many of my known people were unaware of this earth hr day.So its my personal appeal to them and the inhabitants of mother earth to observe it next yr or at least aware others about this because its only us who can prevent what we have created for ourselves.Our future is in our hands and ours only.Sometime i wish that a day should come like in movie “The day the Earth stood still”.
