Thinking green (and white!) this coming weekend

I was just trying to get my schedule organized this week and realized that there are two things that I'm looking forward to this weekend. I thought I'd share them with you so that you can also take part in them.

First off, this Saturday -- March 27 is Earth Hour. It's a global event which aims to increase awareness and encourage responsibility for our environment and future. Whichever country you're in, turn off the lights between 8:30 and 9:30 pm to show your support. You can even go the extra mile and turn off all your appliances too and other electrical gadgets at home. Based on their website, they said that 1 billion people from 88 countries participated in this last year. Of that, there were 10 million Filipinos who participated from all over the world! That's the most out of any other nationality! This year, they're aiming for 15 million Filipinos to take part. Hopefully we can reach this number or possibly, even surpass it! ;-) For more information, check out their website HERE. The website outlines the many other different ways that you can help.

The following day - Sunday the 28th, is another "Green" event over at Pasong Tamo, Makati. It's called the Whitespace Green Market. They hold this event every last Sunday of the month. I haven't been to it but my husband's client had raved about it. I also came across a website found HERE that detailed the various products and food items that you can find there. I LOVE discovering new things! And from Heart 2 Heart Online's website, I can tell that there's a lot to try! There's the paraben-free soaps and cosmetic products, healthy pastries and sweets, organic vegetables, rustic jewellery, environmentally-friendly bags, and clothes that are made of silk and pineapple fibers! There's a whole lot more to find there. I could see from the picture that Delimondo has a stall there. We've just been recently introduced to Delimondo's products. We tried the ranch and corned beef first and we were not at all disappointed. It's verrry yummy! Oh there's just so much more! Check out Market Manila's post on the event HERE too. He said that you can get a buffet lunch for as low as 200 pesos! Amazing! Check it out and we'll see you there! ;-)
