Happy Day, Mother Earth!

 Happy Birthday, Mother Earth! 

Earth Day is an annual event on April 22 to demonstrate support for environmental protection. 

First held on April 22, 1970, it now includes a wide range of events coordinated globally by EARTHDAY.ORG (formerly Earth Day Network) including 1 billion people in more than 193 countries.

But Mother Earth should be cared for and celebrated every day. 

We wouldn't exist if it wasn't for her (it). Yet, we hurt her without any regret. 

Some are aware of the harm they do to it many times a day, but they take any positive action towards earth anyway. 

Some others are completely and utterly oblivious of the consequences of their lack of respect and consideration towards the planet we live on. 

Which ones are worse? 

All. Each of us. 

Luckily, lately, there are many who fight to defend the earth from ultimate destruction. 

I am not a member of any of these organisations or groups, yet, but I do my bit each day. 

And you can too: 

• never waste water 
• plant trees
• seed flowers to help the bees survive 
• don't kill animals for fun or for profit. Save many from extinction 
• don't pollute. Walk or cycle more, instead of using a car. Unless, of course, it's a car that doesn't harm the planet 
• recycle all you can
• don't litter and so, so much more! 

Saving the planet is up to us. Each and every one of us.
