I know it's still 18 days away but Earth Hour is coming fast! Be part of the revolution! On March 28th at 8:30 p.m. make the effort to power down for an hour. I know it's hard for college students because we use a lot of technology and candles aren't allowed in dorms. Here's MY suggestion. It might be frustrating but if you have to do homework, read (I KNOW you have reading to do) and do it by flashlight! Have a campout, build a fort! Go for a walk, walks are both good for your health and think if you can inspire enough people around you to power down as well how beautiful the and bright the sky is when down here it's all dark. The earth has been our home and has provided us with life for a long time, so do your part and give back by protecting and taking care of her. As I will be trying to do too, get others inspired, SPREAD THE WORD!!! anyway you can!!! Think of how amazing it would be if the entire world finally came together for a cause. Being earth-friendly is something we can ALL agree on!!! Some people are probably thinking "HIPPIE" right now but listen to me, our bodies are organic right? So why do feel the need to constantly pollute it with chemicals and preservatives? I dare you to go shopping, by the food you normally do and when you get home look at ALL the nutrition labels now DON'T JUST LOOK AT THE CALORIES!!! examine the ingrediants, how much of that is acutal food(?!!!) look at the percent values for different vitamins, proteins, carbs. In the case of our bodies and our world IGNORANCE IS NOT BLISS!!!! get informed (not from food companies) about the real (and updated) facts about our body and nutrition. Calories are the enemys, FAT is not always an enemy. Take care of yourself and take care of the world!!! I know as of right now I'm a total hypocrite, and I also know how hard it is as a college student (especially in the dorms) to eat healthy and exercise and practice earth happy habits but it's NOT impossible. Do what you can now, but get informed so you can transition into a healthier life. AND REMEMBER EARTH HOUR!!!
