60+ Dance 2 Power Earth Hour

60+ Dance 2 Power Earth Hour at The Float @ Marina Bay on 23 Mar 13

WWF’s Earth Hour rallies Singapore with first-of-its-kind dance-out, using kinetic energy to power 2013 event. For the first time, the public will play an active role in powering up the event to be held at The Float@Marina Bay, by busting their moves on energy absorbing pads to convert the kinetic energy produced to electricity.  This energy will be used to power an outdoor film screening, organised as part of Earth Hour’s activities for the night, in celebration of the world’s hope and commitment towards a low carbon future.

Myself & Evelyn decides to sign up for the event

We were there a little too early, so we went around taking some pictures

This is the kinetic pad which participants will have to move, jump or dance on it to transfer their energy to produce electricity to power up the screening of movie later in the evening

Registration fee is at $20/adult & donor of WWF (ME!!) gets $10 discount! Every participant gets a goodie bag filled with environmentally friendly products.

All participants will be recognized by this green wristband & will not be allowed on the kinetic pad without the wristband.

Here's both of us on the kinetic pad! Each group of participants are to move, jump or dance on it for about 45 mins or so.

At the end of the session, total energy generated was 83570W

The ambassadors on stage, preparing to turn the lights off at 8.30pm! 

Both of us stayed on for awhile after the light offs & decided to head home instead of staying to watch the movie as it'll be a chore to go home after the movie ends!

It was quite a fun event, but will be more fun if go in a bigger group! I hope more friends will join us next year should there be such event on Earth Hour again! 

For those who of you who did not/ missed the event, do try to take up some "I Will If You Will" challenges.Details of "I Will If You Will" challenges can be found at Earth Hour Global Channel

I have not taken up any challenges yet, but I've been a donor to WWF for close to 2 years now, and I'm still donating & will continue to donate as long as I can. 

I've done my little part in helping the environment. Have you done yours? 

I pledge to Donate to WWF & it's Friday, 13th!

Almost 2 yrs ago, I got approached outside CWP by this guy to donate to Singapore Heart Foundation. 

Today, I got approached by a guy from the same company. However, today's event was to raise donation for WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature). 

So... ... I pledge to donate $38/mthly to WWF 

It's Friday, the 13th! Enjoy, peeps!
