For one hour last night, lights went off in Cebu city landmarks, parks, shopping malls, hotels and resorts to participate in the global celebration of Earth Hour. About 24 megawatts were saved in Metro Cebu alone for the two Saturdays leading up to yesterday’s event, according to the Visayan Electric Power Co. (Veco).
“This is enough energy to power 24 municipalities,” said Cebu City Councilor Nestor Archival.
The switch-off was participated by ecology-conscious advocates in Cebu, Mandaue and Talisay.
“This is the people's call to business, government and political leaders asking them to do something to combat climate change,” said Undersecretary Roy Kyamko of the Department of Engergy. As lights in SM City Cebu were turned off in half of the mall, a countdown was made for the ceremonial turning on of solar lamps for a campaign to use renewable energy.

CEBU CITY, Philippines—The Cebu campaign for “Earth Hour” aims to reduce electricity consumption by at least 2.5 percent. Earth Hour is the global environmental advocacy to switch off lights for one hour on the last Saturday of March. This event started in Sydney, Australia two years ago.
“We must send a strong signal that we need to take action with a unified force,” said Cebu City Councilor Nestor Archival during a press conference. “Cebu (city) is consuming 200 megawatts per day. We are targeting a decrease in electricity consumption by 2.5 percent or between six MW and 10 MW this year,” he added.
The campaign mainly addresses the issue on climate change wherein establishments and individuals are encouraged to reduce greenhouse gas emissions – the main cause of global warming – by putting off all lights except lamps for security and life-saving purposes.
Nine government agencies, four local government units, two major shopping malls, three business groups, several hotels, resorts and restaurants and seven universities pledged to join the 60-minute activity.
The main program, which is spearheaded by the Department of Energy together with the Cebu City government, will be held at the SM City Cebu. A ceremonial turning off of lights will be held on March 28 from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Report by Ma. Bernadette A. Parco, Editorial Assistant, Cebu Daily News.
Cuddling up with your your loved ones and admiring the stars in the night sky or organising a treasure hunt in the dark? At 8:30pm on Saturday 28 March, people from all corners of the world will turn off their lights for one hour - Earth Hour - and cast their vote for action on climate change. Anybody can participate and join together with millions of people across the globe celebrating Earth Hour.
Earth Hour is about taking simple steps everyday that collectively reduce carbon emissions – from businesses turning off their lights when their offices are empty to households turning off appliances rather than leaving them on standby.
Here are 10 different ways to spend Earth Hour and reduce your carbon footprint:
1. Attend a local Earth Hour event or organise your own by throwing an Earth Hour street party with your neighbours
2. Gather family & friends for a night picnic in your local park and look at the stars
3. Enjoy a family dinner by candlelight
4. Organise a treasure hunt in the dark
5. Take the dog for a night walk
6. Have a candle-lit bath
7. Sit in the dark and share stories
8. Organise a family night playing board games
9. Share a romantic night in with your loved one
10. Upload your ‘on the night’ photos and videos to flickr and YouTube respectively, and then add them to the Earth Hour flickr group and the global YouTube Group.
Earth Hour Executive Director, Andy Ridley, is encouraging people to participate in whatever way they choose and to think beyond the hour.
“There are no hard and fast rules surrounding participation in Earth Hour. We only ask that you flick that switch and have fun doing whatever you choose to do during that time.
Make Earth Hour work for you. Families with young children should feel free to turn their lights off earlier than 8:30pm and for those having too much fun in the dark during the hour, don’t feel you have to limit yourself to one hour and switch back on at 9:30pm.”
To find out more about Earth Hour, visit the official website www.earthhour.org, sign up and join millions of people in more than 1,400 cities and towns in 80 countries throughout the world by turning off your lights for one hour at 8:30pm on Saturday 28 March.
GRAND NURSING WEEKEND - GRAND SHOWCASE OF CESDEV VOLUNTEERS' TALENTS
Posted by ucnursingcesdev at 3:25 AMDianne Salem, a second year student nurse and a Junior UC Nursing CESDEV volunteer, proved that he could carry a note in melody with others as he actively joined the choral group representing Level II. They sang a medley of Gary Valenciano songs.
UC Nursing CESDEV volunteer Jaira Amar displayed her flair for playing the violin when she accompanied the Level 3 singers in the choral competition. She was a sight to behold in her beautiful gown and was truly impressive in her performance. The group was later declared the winner in the competition. Congratulations!
The student nurse volunteers of UC Nursing CESDEV took the stage of Cebu Coliseum to be acknowleged and were pleasantly surprised with a specially made tribute showcasing the numerous outreach activities initiated and joined by the volunteers. The Audio-Visual Presentation brought about fond memories and made them realize once more about their convictions as volunteers - TO SERVE.
The student nurses who served the Community Extension Service and Development (CESDEV) of the College of Nursing were duly recognized for their valuable service. These student nurse volunteers went beyond the call of duty by serving the community - expanding the reach of the service beyond the academe into the homes of the people whose programs and services were truly needed.
