Earth Day Is Reminding Us of So Many Things

The day of the planet Earth is not only the day of the place where we live. It is also a day of our constant habits that make the place the way it is. Let’s change the future by changing our attitude towards the subjects that relate to all of us.

Today is the Earth day. With so many difficulties finding our peace of mind in this era of coronavirus, economic struggles, and social inequalities, we need something to turn to with more enthusiasm than ever before. What’s better than getting the right point of view about the essentials.

How We’ve Come to the Situation Where the Planet Is So Diverse Yet So United?

Have you noticed that news about fishes and small water animals coming back to their natural waters? It happens all over the world, and it continues to question our overall opinion about nature. Is nature the thing that we can shape the way we want, or we use our power of imagination to believe the natural environment is “stupid” enough to allow us to change its core structure?

On April 22, the significant changes are happening all over the world. Economies are changing their directions; the subventions are reaching their highest points; the solidarity is also on a respectful level. Are all these measures enough to change the shape of our planet and its inhabitants?

When we look back at the past, the situation wasn’t any better, but one thing was different. We didn’t have enough resources to fight the issues that affected our daily lives. In modern times, we have more than one option to spread the word about the problems that resonate with the moment we live in right now.

Why Is Change Necessary?

Disparity and the lack of money is not the thing anymore. At the moment, we rely on our goodwill to make things work for all of us.

Based on accurate knowledge, we can start making changes. One of the best ways to do so is by changing our everyday habits.

Let’s start with the small things: using recycled materials, saving water resources, eating less processed foods, smartly charging phones, and doing everyday activities with more caution.

Let’s start for the moment with the thought that we can change something. It is not anymore the matter of the government, or the neighborhood, or the political system. It is part of our responsibility to take care of the place that is our home place. And no matter where we live, we can make a difference by creating structural changes.

Saving water, drinking and eating more responsibly, and giving more attention to the relevant matters around us are the things that are not that hard, but can help us live on a cleaner, more sustainable, and more reliable planet of Earth.

What Can We Do Today?

We can plan for tomorrow.

And we can plant for tomorrow. Each seed counts. One of the best ways to help nature breathe again is by making the right actions.

We now have the help of technology.

The app called Treedom is affecting the future of the planet Earth.

It helps us see how easy it is to have our piece of nature to take care of in every moment.

With the Treedom app, you can easily plant your tree. It is easy to choose the region, the type of the tree, and some action will begin. Local farmers will plant the tree for you, and you’ll have your piece of nature in Kenya, Cameroon, Italy, Nepal, or Haiti. How more international your action can be?

Vision is one part of our consciousness, but actions speak louder than words. Let’s make this Earth day special by contributing to one of the best projects we’ve seen recently.

Let’s save the planet. Let’s green the planet.
