Subject:Β What about some

Helloooooo thereeee People!


This week we celebrated World Environment Day! 🌎 It’s the perfect moment to reflect on how we can make a positive impact on our planet. πŸ’ͺπŸ»πŸ™πŸ» Whether you’re an avid recycler β™», a passionate tree planter 🌳, or someone who’s just starting to think about reducing their carbon footprint, every little action counts in the fight for a healthier Earth!


For many years now, countries have been using this opportunity for raising awareness and taking action on critical environmental issues, from pollution to biodiversity conservation. πŸ’ͺ🏻🌎 This year's theme is "Ecosystem Restoration," encouraging us to reimagine, recreate, and restore our natural habitats. We often forget that we have a big responsibility towards our community, hence the environment. & it’s quite easy for us to be the change we want to see around us. Changing our small daily habits can have a huge impact on restoring our environment. Here are some quick & easy ways we can all contribute for a better tomorrow: πŸ™πŸ»πŸ‘‡πŸ»


  1. Reduce, reuse & recycle - Pause & think about whether I can recycle this item before throwing it in the bin, β™»

  2. Eat sustainable food - choose locally grown & organic food. This support local farmers and reduce the cardon footprint associated with food production and transportation.

  3. Plant a tree or gift a tree or simple gift some seeds 🌳

  4. If possible, switch to renewable energy such as solar. Even small changes, like using energy-efficient appliances and LED bulbs, can make a big difference! β˜€πŸŒ¬

So, ready to know what’s your contribution or damage to the earth πŸ€”- check your carbon footprint here - https://www.carbonfootprint.com/calculator.aspx
