As a well-known public event, the purpose of this global charity practice is to cultivate and enhance the public awareness of environmental protection. “Earth Hour” was firstly initiated in Sydney in 2007 and it has created a dramatic impact around the world in the past three years.

On the day of the Earth Hour event in 2009, millions of people from 4159 cities in 88 countries participated. Landmarks including Beijing Bird Nest Stadium and Water Cube Sports Center, Shanghai's Oriental TV Tower, WFC (World Financial Center), Sphinx and the Pyramids of Giza, the Eiffel Tower in Paris etc., have participated with an action of lights off for one hour.

Better, Faster, Stronger!!!

Hello everyone for this second week on LOokOut China, I wanted to discuss more this week about some interesting "creatives" that we can all see in Beijing and their specificities.

I wanted today to share with you this campaign for HuaXia Bank that I found funny as I myself wondered: Where else can we see the coach of a table-tennis team being the main figure of a major brand if it's not China?

Beijing Metro: Going DIGITAL!!

Before talking about the new media that appears in the Beijing METRO lately. Let's make a short introduction about what is the Beijing metro right now: It is 10 lines of Metro with the latest opening of the line 4 ( the numbers have nothing to do with the number of existing lines).
When I arrived in Beijing in 2004 , there were only 2 lines ( Blue and Red). Then the Line 13 opened a year later and the preparation for the Olympics led to the opening of a few more. Let's have a look below of what was the situation end of 2009 for the subway network. ( Many thanks to www.chinatouristmaps.com for providing the great maps in this article)
