Earth Hour 2009 - Hong Kong mid-levels

This is a short time-lapse of the view looking up at the mid-levels in Hong Kong showing how many people switched off their lights for Earth Hour 2009 on the 28th of March.

With YouTube blocking audio for so many video now, I decided not to use any music, so this is a bit boring. If you are the copyright owner of a song or piece of music I can use let me know.

Many people in Hong Kong do not care or even consider until it will directly affect them in a direct negative way. The planet dying is a process that may not even affect them in their lifetime, so they would not care. Consider SARS or the H5N1 avian ful outbreak. These events affected them directly and promptly, making them all cautious of sanitary etiquette. But now that it's under control and it does not affect them any longer, they do not care anymore.

"What is it going to take for the citizens of Hong Kong to start caring about the environment?"

The answer to that question is money!!! Just link it to money and you will immediately see a result. It could either be getting money or saving money.
