88888
Is that a quick number for pizza or buying Kuselan’s movie ticket!.
Well, its a campaign that has been started in Chennai to arrest global warming.
hmm.. what is this “Global Warming”
So what can we do as Chennaite? we cannot go to places or visit people to talk or explain about global warming. But, being at our home we can spread the message by turning off all our lights on August 8th at 8pm for 8 minutes. Similar practice was followed in Sydney, London, mumbai and now its our turn to create a awareness that we spread the message on global warming. I even signed for the “earth day” on Mar29th this year and supported the event by switch of my light’s for an hour. Next earth day is on March28th 2009 at 8.30PM.
There’s a clear and present danager out there and we must join our hands to support this “88888” by being a part of it.
lets do all that we can by spreading the word to our friends, colleagues and ppl we meet everyday and ask them to pass it on to all ppl they meet.
Guys thats really nice. It happened in mumbai once. I thought when would we be doing in chennai.. hats off for the initiative.. post more on what to do with LIGHTS off!!!
