Turn off the lights ! its Earth hour tonight...

Just was going through the channels on television and caught this interesting event that all are crying about.. save the planet ! try and stall global warming...

The funny part here is that in India we do such a thing every day! If you don't believe me then check the number of power cuts we face in the cities.. forget villages as they do without power for days at a time..thanks to our very efficient and hard working Electricity department. I would imagine a GreenPeace worker going to my village and trying to convince them to switch off power for one hour tonight... bet the reaction of the people there would be Are you Crazy?
Man has found funny ways to say we care to the planet, but increase the price of crude oil based products by a rupee and that could topple the current government in power!
I would say the best way to show our planet we care is stop the exponential growth in Human population! That would be a sure way of reducing the amount of resources we use of the Earth, and in turn there would be more space where the planet can try and cure it of the human damage...
do you think our poor planet can sustain 6 billion people!
the human population has grown so much that an earthquake in the remote part of the world kills 1 million people! We have become like bacteria on a piece of bread.. now how long will the bread last is as good a guess as you could take!
I would say human nature of greed and materialism have led the planet on the brink of disaster...
hope we learn to rectify what we have done wrong and save the planet which has sustained us for such a long time..
hope each of us tries to do his or her best before its too late...
