"What's the use of a fine house if you haven't got a tolerable planet to put it on." ~ Henry David Thoreau 
June 5.
Does this date ring a bell? Well, of course today is June 5. But what is the importance of this date?


We celebrate June 5 as World Environment Day every year to heal the wounds that the human race has given to Mother Earth. But I don't think that one day is enough to heal the wounds that we have been causing to nature for all these years. Instead of thinking about making big contributions and major changes to the environment, just do your part! Fulfill your contribution and then move forward. Instead of dreaming about planting a hundred trees, start with just planting one. 

On the occasion of World Environment Day, let's take a pledge together to help heal Mother Earth. Here's a list of 5 things that we should start doing after this World Environment Day. 

1. Recycling. This helps reduce landfill waste, reduce energy consumption, decreases polution, conserves natural resources, reduces global warming and saves hundreds and thousands of forests and habitats. 

2. Plant tress.  Planting trees is an integral part of WED. Plant at least 1 sapling this month. Increase the number gradually. This year's theme for WED is based on the message "Raise your voice, not the sea level." 

3. Neighbourhood clean-up. Invite your neighbours and organise a neighbourhood clean-up and beautify your community. Trash-picking is crucial for this activity. You may also repair fences or minor things in your house. 
 
4. Take public transportation. Try to make a change with this one. If you can, them you should take public transportation. Carpooling too is a great way to reduce those toxic fumes. 

5. Stop killing animals. Animals are a very important part of our environment. They hold great importance in the nature. The human race has been destroying their habitats and has been killing them. Let's stop this now and forever. Stop killing those innocent species. 

So, here are a few things that we should keep in mind for World Environment Day. Have a safe WED. Thanks for reading!

Introducing Me

By
My name is Inayat Roy  and I'm 14 years old. Since this is my very first blog post, I would like to describe my journey of how I started to blog.                    " Creativity doesn't wait for that perfect moment. It fashions its own perfect moments out of ordinary ones." One of my classmates started blogging recently.  She shared her blogging ideas with me which I was fascinated to see. After watching her admiration for blogs based on spirituality, I was keen on starting one myself. But then came up the question - " What will I write about"? I started searching for blog ideas on the Internet, but was disappointed as I couldn't find any intriguing topics. Finally, I decided to write about my own lifestyle . What a marvellous idea! I would also like to share my views about ongoing issues that surround us in our daily lives. I want to be blogging for others to view what new they can add in their lives...
