 ¿Qué es la hora del planeta?

La Hora del Planeta es un llamado a nuestra comunidad para que actúe. Es una alerta para asumir responsabilidades e involucrarnos en el trabajo por un futuro sustentable.

La hora del planeta es una iniciativa de WWF que es una de las mayores organizaciones internacionales de conservación de la naturaleza. Fue creada el 29 de abril de 1961.

El sábado 19 de marzo de 2016 a las 8:30p.m.  (Hora local de cada país),  la WWF nos pide a todos, alrededor del mundo que apaguemos  las luces durante una hora, La Hora del Planeta, para demostrar globalmente su preocupación por el cambio climático y demostrar su compromiso para encontrar soluciones

Para contribuir con esta importante causa, la comunidad St. Michael’s y sus estudiantes están dispuestos a colaborar con una serie de acciones que les ayuda a crear conciencia sobre el uso de aparatos electrónicos y del agua. Está dentro de su responsabilidad apagar las luces, aires acondicionados, televisores, etc. De igual modo, para el uso del agua cerrar la llave del agua cuando esta no este en uso, y simpre y cuando no sea necesario, tomar duchas cortas.

Con estas acciones buscamos crear conciencia entre nuestros estudiantes y sus familias para despertar el deseo de cuidar de nuestra tierra.

 

Earth Hour

Earth hour is a call to action that the World Wildlife Fund (international organization since April 29, 1961) is promoting to create awareness on climate change throughout the entire world.

 

Next Saturday at 8:30 p.m. local time in each country, the WWF is asking everyone to turn off the lights for 60 minutes. The meaning of this action is to show concern for climate change and to demonstrate intentions to find a long term solution to this problem.

 

The SMS community is willing to collaborate with a series of actions throughout daily life in order to support this important cause, encouraging students to be aware of this situation when using electrical devices and water.  It is in their control to be able to save energy, by turning off lights, air conditioners, televisions, etc. when not in use or necessary, and save water by taking shorter showers and making sure all faucets are tightly closed.

 

With these steps, we are looking to create awareness between the members of our community and to make our contribution to the wellbeing of our planet.
