Earth Day!
By Jade Dawes
As we walk this earth every day, it seems right to have a day dedicated to its celebration
The earth provides us with so many essentials required to live a healthy and full life, but as pollution, deforestation and climate change are on the rise, it’s clear that it’s now our job to protect the environment and work towards a more sustainable way of living.
Earth day is a day to focus on the earth’s well-being and to make an effort to do something good – from picking up litter to planting trees, whatever is doable.
However, as we all know, it’s more effective to adopt a few good habits that you can do on a daily basis and be consistent. It delivers more tangible results.
Things to consider could be actions such as using less energy, growing your own vegetables, using rainwater to water the lawn or simply using the car less.
Another way you can help the earth is by reducing the amount of plastic you purchase.
