The employees of energy companies knock at the doors of houses and offer each family to exchange their ordinary light bulbs for the energy-saving ones. This campaign is not a joke, but a part of the government's plan on saving the energy. Summer in Southern hemisphere is all-time hot this year. Argentineans have celebrated New Year at a temperature of 40C above zero.
In order to save energy the government has also decided to set forward the clocks one hour, supposing that if it gets dark at a later time, people will spend less energy. The majority of population has accepted the authorities' initiative with enthusiasm. |
