7. Kill Your TV!
Could you live without television for a week? That’s what millions of
people do every April as part of TV Turnoff Week, which is organized by
anti-television group like NoTV.com and white Dot.
Sure, TV can sometimes be fun and exciting, especially when you’re
tired at the end of the day, “ says Rudi Matthew from No.TV.com, “ but
most of the time it’s just boring. We want people to turn off TV for a
week and do something more interesting instead.”
You may be surprised how much television we watch. The average
American family watches TV for 7 hours and 40 minutes every day and
British men watch 27 hours a week (British women watch ‘only’ 24
hour). This means we spend over ten years of our life watching TV –
what a frightening thought!

American child sees 16,000 murders on TV before he or she is 18, and

school and that’s very worrying.”
Turnn off Week started in the USA in 1995 and now happens every
year in the UK,France,Holland and Australia. More than 25 million
people have turned off their TV, so why don’t you of the same?
