dear jasmina , good to see you here .. x x x
will do. good idea. where have you been hiding?
Hi Jasmina, you'll be in my thoughts for the 5 min silence. hope you are well
Hi Jasmina,
just wanted to say that I was so proud to see that the Eiffel tour in Paris switched its lights off too... it was on the news.
Somehow I was initially disillusioned this time to participate. The first time I passed it onto everyone in my office and only got ignorant and negative responses. I will do it next time again.
Did you know, and it was on tv, that if every household in Britain would replace one light bulb with an energy saving light bulb we could close down one power station. This always motivates me. It just shows that every tiny little bit we do has a bigger effect than we might think it has.
just a thought.
;-) Biggi
