As and when we celebrate a festival, the next time, India, why not try using flowers instead of plastic? You will be doing a favour to yourself, the planet, and the people around you! 🌸🌼🌻
Let us safeguard the planet from plastic and chemical menace.
Bees have been around for 125 million years. An estimated 80% of food in grocery stores is available on the shelves, thanks to bee-pollinated crops. But thanks to the pesticide industry and Industrial Arg – Bees are disappearing… let us save them.
Let us not turn our backs on the environment at a time when #climate action is most needed. That’s why governments and politicians must keep their promises, stop fossil funding and act to restore nature. #ActOnClimate #ActNow
There is a climate emergency because our climate is changing faster than nature, including us, can adapt to it. We have a limited time to keep global temperatures within a limit from which the Earth can recover, so we have to take action now. The climate is the long-term pattern of day-to-day weather.
A litter can be as small as a sweet wrapper or as large as a bag of rubbish, meaning lots of scattered items. The legislation also clarifies explicitly that discarded gum products, cigarette ends, and matches are types of litter.
The offence of leaving litter applies when a person throws down, drops or otherwise deposits any litter in any place in the open air in the area of a principal litter authority to which the public has access with or without payment and leaves it. Litter is associated with many social, environmental, and economic issues. It can also be a source of safety hazards for road users. The issue of litter is a complex matter caused by various reasons which do not have a single solution. Removal methods focus on collecting the existing litter, which can be very effective in the short-term but are usually costly.
Addressing climate change will require significant infrastructure, technology, and innovation investments. We will discuss the financing mechanisms and partnerships needed to support Africa’s transition to a low-carbon, climate-resilient future.
Wildfires become more frequent, severe, and destructive as the Earth warms. It is high time that we acknowledge the role of #climatechange in fueling these fires and take decisive, measurable and harsh actions to mitigate climate change and its effects.
