/> The <strong><a
href="http://www.mumbaiunplug.com/">Batti Bandh</a></strong> or the <strong><a
href="http://www.mumbaiunplug.com/">Mumbai Unplug</a></strong> campaign has been a success, even if 10-20% of the Mumbai population participated. I am sure that the figures will be different if this campaign is done again in the future. It only shows that people are interested and want to help in combating Global Warming, because agree or disagree we are causing it.</p><p>The remainder either werenâ€™t aware of such a movement (where on the 15th of December, all electrical appliances and consumers had to be switched off from 7:30 pm IST for an hour) or they had this to say, â€œ<strong>How Does it Matter?</strong>â€</p><p>Such people are apprehensive because we humans are always pessimistic about a change or trying something new.</p><p>Humans believe that they always need a leader to perform a show, it talks about our dependency. Itâ€™s sad to say that they/we have forgotten the power of <strong>â€˜Iâ€™</strong><br
/> For the fight against Global Warming we donâ€™t need leaders, we need <strong>â€˜Iâ€™</strong>s. It has to be you, me and our contemporaries joining hands not to follow someone but working together to fight it.</p><p>You may be the one who said, â€œ<em>How does it Matter?</em>â€ but remember itâ€™s the thought that matters because <em>a thought becomes a habit</em>; <em>a habit becomes your nature</em>; <em>a nature your character</em>. And itâ€™s this <strong>character that creates Revolutions</strong>.<br
/> So, donâ€™t kill the thought by saying â€œHow does it matter?â€</p><p><strong>Related Tags :</strong> <a
