Earth Day
We are celebrating the 50th anniversary of Earth Day on 2020 April 22 in the midst of a pandemic, with the world slowed and hobbled by Covid-19. Yet Earth Day reminds us the planet still turns, the global climate and biodiversity crises still cry for attention, and nature still reveals its shimmering resilience. This Earth Day, as humans have retreated indoors to slow down the spread of the virus, we’re finding out how ecosystems respond to our absence from public spaces. Meanwhile, our planet, and our understanding of it, keeps changing at a frenetic pace. Average temperatures are rising, natural systems are degrading, and our vulnerability is increasing.
Even as many of us remain locked inside, there is still a big wide world out there with much to explore and discover.This is a very special day — the fiftieth anniversary of earth day. We have come a long way during this half-century. We are much more conscious of the environment, the damage we are causing the earth, and our responsibilities to mother nature. Ironically, the lockdown period has reminded us of the beauty of nature. Earth Day is about raising awareness about the importance of protecting our planet and taking action.
On this day i decided to go for a nature walk on the backyards. Doing a nature walk is not only about celebrating EarthDay. It's also an opportunity for experiencing the nature. We need to understand and be grateful that the we have a beautiful planet to ourselves. As a student teacher I have the opinion that Environmental education empowers students around the world to solve the climate crisis and develop the skills, optimism and resolve to lead the environmental movement of tomorrow.
