“Earth Hour” in Maldives

“Earth Hour” is a global event organized by the World Wild Fund (WWF) – the global independent conservation organization to create awareness about Global Warming and the impact it creates on our planet. It is a global call to action for every individual, every business, and every community; a call to stand and take control over the future of our planet. It is also the largest campaign for the planet in history.
The Earth Hour first started as a national event in Australia. On March 31, 2007, by switching of its lights for one hour, over 2.2 million Sydneysiders and 2,100 businesses switched off their lights for the Hour and made a powerful statement about the urgent need for action on Global Warming.

CLOVE HITCH

The clove hitch is a type of knot often considered as one of the most essential knots. It consists of two opposed half hitches made successively around an object.

This is a very important knot of only theoretical value. Without extra support, it is untrustworthy in any situation, except as a crossing knot.
A clove hitch made around the standing part of the line is known as either two half-hitches or Buntline hitch, depending on whether half-hitches progress away or towards the hitched object.
Ashley’s Book of Knots says, “The Clove Hitch was, originally, included here with the intention of condemning it. It does have two giant faults: it slips and, illogically, can also bind. However, it does have at least one excellent application (though NOT in boating!)”.
