Batti Bandh Campaigns

The Penguins are waking up, to find their homes in pools of water.

50 years from now, the Himalayan Glaciers will only exist in photos… and memories.

Rice lovers... Eat all you can. Rice yields could fall by 40% over TWO YEARS.



Ever spared a thought for what's causing all of this?

..Don't bother… It's US.

GLOBAL WARMING is a serious issue. ….But who's doing anything about it?

I could sit at home and prepare a random thesis on …Err.. Say how the 0.75% increase in thermal inertia could have negative results after 150,000 years.....!

But I know that by the time I'm done with that report, Mumbaikars will be struggling to stay afloat…

Well. I am sitting at home, and trying to make a difference . YOU can do the same.

Program Details

Batti Bandh is an entirely voluntary event taking place on the 15th of December between 7:30 & 8:30 p.m. This event is aimed at requesting all of Mumbai to stand up for a cause that is greater than all of us. All you need to do is switch off lights and appliances in your home, shop, office, school, college or anywhere you are for 1 hour to take a stand against global warming. Just 1 hour."
Midday


This has been Initiated to many other cities too. This has been done in Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai.

We are now looking at doing this in Hyderabad too.



How can you be a part of it?

It's not too difficult. You have two choices.

Participate. Or. PARTICIPATE. (This one hour, will prepare you for what's on the cards 20 years hence anyway...)


The wrong done, can't be undone. Wake up, and do the right to be done.

DISCLAIMER :This is an Initiative by MUMBAI UNPLUG
