Whether or not you believe in Global Warming (since when did science become a matter of faith?), you’ll probably be interested in the upcoming Earth Hour, a 23-city event that aims to make a statement about the need for climate change. Manila will be a participant in this international affair, as PinoyCentric reports:
Climate change has never been a more pressing concern than today, and this year, Manila, led by the World Wildlife Fund, joins 23 other cities across the globe in supporting Earth Hour’s statement on global warming by turning off the lights for one hour on March 29, 2008, at 8 p.m.
While I have some reservations about turning the lights off at night (why not do it in the morning, when it will be less of a impracticality?), it good that our capital city will be participating in an ecologically-aware event. Mark your calendars folks!

Yes, I will participate to enhance awareness to global warming, not to its anthropogenic CO2 emission caused, but as a natural phenomenon of earth’s climate cycle.
Never thought I’d hear from a Filipino who had an ecological view different from “conventional wisdom.”
