[sub]

Hi

To day is the day for switching of the electricity from 8.30 p.m to 9.30 p.m to reduce the global warming and i hope all our forum members know about it and do the same for a better world tomorrow (especially us).

I'll switch off my electronics but leave my 1 watt LED light on to promote LED conservation and efficiency!

 

[iaudio]

Planning to do the same here too.

 

[mnhegde]

Doing the same here, and have requested my relatives, neighbors and friends to do the same in their areas and spread the message .


CorElement: LED idea is good.

MR Goenka and his assosiates are doing it for calcutta on a regular basis. I don't have to worry about it.

If i am not wrong, in Bangalore, the BESCOM is switchin the whole Residential and Corporate Power Cut Off...
And there was not a single objection for it...:clapping:

Even many Restaurants are offering specialty Candle Light dinner between 20:30 to 21:30 hrs...:licklips:

Hey i am a bit disappointed...

I thought that BESCOM will be cutting the Power Off for complete Bangalore...except Street Lights, or any imp places..

But there was no Power Cut...

Anyways, we switched off all the lights, only TV(IPL), the FAN and the Fridge were on, rest all were being switched off...

BESCOM could have cut the Power Off for one hour....

i did it folks, the first few mins were difficult but once my eyes got used to the darkness it was easy, in fact it was a very relaxing 1 hour, like a personal 1 hour vacation After a long time I and my better half were having a conversation without the interruption of tv or cell phones.

Hi

I thank one and all for responding to save earth campaign and we the forum members should try and save energy in any form as we are the ones who use energy (Electricity) a lot. My request is to plant a tree and prevent a tree being removed.

It was nice to stay without PC's, Light etc for about an hour. But I just don't stop there, I actively do these daily (Not switching off everything )

I always use Jute Bags for regular Supermarket shopping.

Also a passive member of Greenpeace and WWF. Have adopted a Amur Leopard . There are only a handful of them in the World and our own Bengal Tiger is in that very list.

Use Washing Machine at low temperatures and always put Plastic & Bottles into the Recycling area.

How do you do that ? Adopting an animal I mean

Whats that?

[ajinkya]

Has anyone got information on just how much energy was saved (measured, not estimated) in that one hour all over India (world) during the one hour switch-off? I would be keen to see how much impact consumer electricity consumption has on the overall power budget?

 

[teky]

Through the WWF website.

WWF-UK - Support WWF

Whats that?

Sorry, Was talking about using the Dryer program with just 30 Degree Celsius instead of 90 which consumes more power.
