The Hazy Effect

With the seasonal haze that is already becoming an annual affair here, a lot of people has started getting the sick bugs. Added with the recent H1N1 scare, many of us are becoming more and more conscious with how we're treating our bodies. I happen to have pictures to show you how bad the air quality was a week ago.

This was taken months back. This is how the city looks like on a usual clear day. You can clearly see the KLCC Twin Towers on the far left view, KL tower in the middle.

And this, was how the view looked like a week ago. You could barely see what lit up the city skyline. All you could see were shadowy figures.

I hope the air quality will not be deteriorate and worsen in the next few days. Good thing there's been occasional downpour thoughout the last few days of the week.

Earth Is Clocking On Us...

You've probably taken part in Earth Hour's worldwide effort.
And at some point of time in your lives, you've also probably did your part in making the earth and environmental-friendly place to live in. Things you do like saying no to open burning, car-pooling, to little things like choosing the right avenue & channel to recycle papers, aluminiums, plastics, and glasses. If you're nodding your head by now, I can tell you, you've done good, and please continue to do so. But if you're sniggering and/or yawning your way through the thought of those, then you ought to seriously take a look at what you're causing a world to be in future.

Here are a few movies/documentaries that could be rather thought-provoking, mind-awakening to many of us.
