This year’s focus on renewable energy and the push to triple clean energy by 2030 resonates deeply with our core mission. We recognize that individual action is crucial, but a collective shift towards sustainability is essential for the health of our planet.

The theme directly amplifies our long-standing advocacy for a transition away from fossil fuels. We champion renewable energy sources like biogas, which are clean, sustainable, and significantly safer for both human health and the environment.

The burning of fossil fuels has dire consequences, including exposing pregnant mothers to air pollution from emissions. This pollution has been linked to increased miscarriages and stillbirths, causing profound trauma and depression for the affected mothers and their loved ones.

Furthermore, the reliance on non-renewable energy sources jeopardizes future generations into uncertainty and fear of the unknown.

On this Earth Day, we urge everyone, especially responsible authorities, to embrace the call for clean energy by 2030. This commitment is not just about the environment, it’s about safeguarding human health and ensuring a viable future.

While we emphasize the power of clean energy this year, we acknowledge that Earth Day encompasses the broader protection of our planet, including the preservation of wetlands, swamps, and water bodies. These vital ecosystems are critical for biodiversity, climate regulation, and providing clean water.

Traveling by bus today, I witnessed the disheartening act of people throwing plastic bags and empty water bottles out the windows. This sight makes me wonder if we fully appreciate Mother Earth’s importance to all living beings.

Moments like these call for everyone to take action. Be your neighbor’s keeper, advise them on proper waste disposal instead of ignoring such actions. The consequences of pollution affect not just individuals but also our country, continent, and the entire globe.

Protecting Earth means safeguarding all its creations, including wetlands, swamps, and water bodies. Be the citizen who plants trees in your community. Protect swamps and wetlands from encroachment for settlements and other human activities.

Let’s strive in making conscious choices and actively participating in environmental stewardship. By embracing sustainable practices, we ensure a healthy planet for generations to come. Let’s create a world where environmental protection is a daily commitment.

Be Mother Earth’s guardian, protecting her from everyday harm.
