More on celebrities, whose lifestyles and professions use enormous power, and then get preachy
PETALING JAYA: This year’s Earth Hour will see singer-actress Hannah Tan shower without turning on the heater.
“No hot water showers (for me) for the entire day!†she said.
I’d be more impressed if it wasn’t for just one out of 365
Maya Karin: ‘It’s good to see that Earth Hour has made an impact in Malaysia.’
Tan added that using less hot water and opting for a shower instead of a bath would also help save Mother Earth.
She is among many individuals who will be commemorating Earth Hour on March 26 by doing more than just coping in the dark for 60 minutes out of a year.
Earth Hour was initiated by WWF in 2007 and has seen an increased urgency with calls for people to “go beyond the hourâ€.
“I believe we can all make the difference by adjusting our lifestyles a little, with things such as replacing our regular light bulbs with energy-saving ones, checking our car tyres regularly – properly inflated tyres means good gas mileage, which leads to decreased production of carbon monoxide,†said Tan.
How about simply giving up your car, all you alarmists, if they’re so bad?
Say, I wonder how much CO2 was produced from the magazine shoot, publishing that edition, printing it, and transporting it around the world?
