Let's Celebrate Earth Day !!

The celebration of Earth Day on April 22nd began in the United States in 1970 and was the brainchild of Senator Gaylord Nelson, who had long pondered about finding a way to "put the environment into the political 'limelight' once and for all".

Earth Day is a perfect time to reflect about what you are doing to help protect the environment. There are many ways that you can celebrate alone and with others.

  How to Celebrate Earth Day ?

• Plant trees :  Planting trees helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, cleans pollution, secures soil in place to prevent erosion, and provides homes for a lot of biodiversity.

•  Make nature crafts at school or home : Get together with your family and build a birdhouse or make a bird feeder to encourage the local bird population, which plays an important role in every ecosystem.

•  Learn more about the environment. Earth Day is a good time to make a commitment to learning more about the environment and how you can help to protect it.

• Reduce, reuse and recycle all day long : Buy as little as possible and avoid items that come in lots of packaging. Support local growers and producers of food and products - these don't have to travel as far and so reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Take your drink container with you, and don't use any disposable plates or cutlery.Recycle all the things you do use for the day or find other uses for things that you no longer use. Carry a cloth bag for carrying things in and recycle your plastic bags.

• Active Participation In Enviornment Friendly Projects  :  Under the guidance of Param Pujya Aniruddha Bapu (Dr. Aniruddha Joshi) Shree Aniruddha Upasna Foundation with its affiliated organisations and the Aniruddha’s Academy of Disaster Management (AADM) has successfully implemented various projects like Use paper bags instead of non-biodegradable plastic ,Vermiculture, Tree Plantation for conservation of the environment and general awareness among both the urban and rural people in India.Let's Celebrate Earth Day with active Participation in these projects to save our mother Earth. 

• Remember : Every day is Earth Day... Anything to help our environment is a perfect thing to do on Earth Day and every day.Don't restrict yourself to just one day a year; learn about how you can make a difference to environmental protection all the time. And put it into practice - every day !!
