EARTH DAY 2021 by Sarah J. McNeal #TheWildingsSeries

 


There is so much I want to say about celebrating Earth Day because every living thing on Earth depends on what we humans must do before it’s too late. We are at the precipice of disaster. If we humans don’t change what we’re doing, we will ultimately kill the ecosystem on our planet and ourselves.

Many of us live in cities where tall building, highways, and traffic give us the feeling we are separate and more elevated than the other living beings on the planet, but nothing could be more untrue. It won’t matter if the economy dries up and Wall Street crashes if we don’t have clean water, food free from poisons, and soil and oceans rich with life. It is imperative that we take major steps to change right now. It’s on us, in this moment, to prevent the Earth and all living things on it from dying.

So, I hope you will join me in celebrating Earth Day by taking a step toward cleaning up our mess.


Until Next Time...

EARTH DAY IS SUNDAY #SaveMotherEarth




EARTH DAY IS SUNDAY



I care about Mother Earth, about climate change, pollution, clean water, protecting living things, and preserving wilderness areas. It’s overwhelming if I think about all the things that are dying, going extinct, or being ruined by human beings. I focus on the things within my power: conservation of water and power, using organic methods for pesticides, taking care of my trees, using reusable bags when I shop instead of plastic, recycling everything I can, donating to associations that are working toward a healthy planet, and signing petitions to prevent pollution and preserve what we have.


The Earth would get along just fine without human beings. We are the cause of many problems and that means we can work to fix those problems. If we continue the way we are going, we will systematically destroy our planet and we have nowhere else to go, no plan B; no contingency plan. Earth Day is celebrated by becoming mindful of the things we can do to keep our planet healthy for the coming generations.


I know I can’t do everything, but I can do some things. If we all pledge to do some thing, we can make difference. We still have time.
