World Water Day - Sandwich Mob - the outcome

So, half of our plans worked out right -- everything else was a blur of spontaneity and impulse. Yesterday, in order to raise awareness and urge the public to Start Saving Water, a bunch of students went onto the streets with their message boards.

Went by the LRT stations...

Got a good few thumbs up from passerby's!

Dropped by the Chinatown of Malaysia a couple of times --

 

And finally, we went to where it all began :)

The river that was before Kuala Lumpur came about =) it's just a giant drain now, and with all the trash in it that was contributed by KLites, it's a really dirty one.

Did you know that our planet is 70% water, but only 2.5% are available for consumption for the 6 billion people on earth?

Did you know that every 15 seconds, a child dies from unsafe water and inadequate sanitation?

Why should we save water, anyway? Does it really make a difference? Why shouldn't you flush? Why should you ensure that your tap isn't leaking? The answer lies with the same reasoning that the Power of 10 Sen campaign is built on, and also why it is so successful. Every drop counts, and it all accumulates into something that can be used for something else altogether.

A little something for you to consider :)

It is officially World Water Day tomorrow -- perhaps also the day that you embark on your conservatism? ;)

P.S. : BTW, we got media attention!

Success!
