9 Things To Do This Earth Day




How brutal are we towards the lovely blue planet we dwell on! Polluting the rivers and oceans with industrial and biological waste. Cutting trees to build to skyscrapers. Have you ever thought what would happen in the coming years? There will be fire on water due to the oil spills, animals will come behind us for food and only then man would understand what it means to respect the planet.
This earth day, BE THE CHANGE and make change happen.
Here are a few things you to must do on Earth Day

1. Plant saplings

Plant a sapling and adopt it. Look after it until you die, don’t let anyone touch it. Let it grow and live forever. Urge other people to plant saplings in their own backyard too. This year Earth Day completes its 45th anniversary, so take up the challenge to tell 45 people to plant saplings and tell those to tell others to plant saplings too.

2. Switch off all the electronics for at least 2 hours

No mobile, no laptop, no WIFI, no television. Go out and play and bond with the nature around you. Observe birds chirping, cats and dogs playing, butterflies flying around. Hear the sound that leaves make when breeze brushes on them and talk to the trees. This is a great relaxation therapy too!

3. Go eco friendly

Ride a cycle, or take a walk inside of traveling by car or motorbike.

4. Join a NGO

Kick start your association with some NGO which works for flora and fauna. Motivate your friends to join with you.

5. Take an oath and be sure you follow it.

Take an oath to reduce the use of processed food, eat fresh and organic.

6. Follow the three R’s

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Use apparel made with natural fibers, this will help in reducing the pollution created by the textile industry, which is the most polluting industry in the world.

7. Spread the message

You alone aren’t sufficient to save the world, you need man force. Talk with your family, friends, people in your community and carry out activities such as mass sapling planting.

8. Go vegan

Request your family members to have one meatless dinner. Go vegan for one day.

9. Save electricity

Go out on a picnic with your family. It will ease down your electricity bill as well as have a family time. Go to the national park, a zoo or a bird sanctuary as that will bring you close to the nature too!
Remember every day is Earth Day and do your part of good every day a little. The immense joy you’ll get will be too much to be expressed in words.
This Earth Day, promise the Earth that no matter what, you will try to adopt ways in reducing the harm done. Go organic, buy Eco-friendly products, donate old clothes and furniture, install solar cells in your backyard… do what you think will help the Earth make a better place to live.
Go Green!
