KARACHI:
Earth Day is an annual remembrance of preserving our planet from the activities that are negatively affecting it. The Earth Day was first celebrated on 22 April 1970. More than 50 years on, one billion people worldwide celebrate this day, making it the largest day of civic action worldwide. To mark this day, we should raise awareness against the activities causing a negative impact on the planet earth such as global warming as well as air, water and plastic pollution. What all this day should be about is to carry out tree plantation, participate in cleaning activities in parks and beaches, and encourage recycling and composting. We should support conservation efforts and organise campaigns to educate others about environmental issues.
