Happy Earth Day!!

Today is Earth Day.

It started in 1970 when an American Senator Gaylord Nelson called for a national gathering to highlight environmental issues at the national level. The gathering paved the way of the establishment of the US Environmental Protection Agency and the formulation of environmental acts. From then onwards, 22 April is celebrated annually all over the world as a sign of concerted effort to educate the global communities in environmental protection.

On this special day, I’d like to ask you, what are your contributions to protect our Earth? No matter how small it is, it is still a contribution, right? *smile*

There are so many things we can do at home, at work, in schools, and wherever we are.

This year's theme is Call for Climate. We all must do something to tackle the problem of global warming in whatever possible ways. We can conserve energy by switching off what's not needed, and many more.

Have an extra lovely day and remember, Earth Day is every day! *smile*
