We're all in this together

Earth Day recently saved an enormous amount but what it did for me was to raise my awareness - congratulations to the places which made it an event - such as a candle lit dinner etc.

Bangkok Earth Hour 2013 saved 1,699 megawatts of electricity, reduced carbon dioxide emissions by 1,073 tonnes & saved 6.65 million baht.


We're all in this together and this App intends to do is also raise our awareness and make everybody aware that the little things count as well.
