Celebration of April 22.

The International Mother Earth Day has been celebrated for half a century. However, in 2009 this ephemeris proclaimed by the United Nations was formalized in 2009.

The purpose of this celebration is a call of conscience to the inhabitants of planet Earth. For it is our only home, so it is our responsibility to care for and love our home.

People need to be aware of important issues such as overpopulation, pollution, biodiversity conservation, and others.

International Mother Earth Day Origin

The beginnings of this celebration of International Mother Earth Day were in 1968. In that year an important event entitled as Symposium on Human Ecology was held.

This event was aimed at students and the talks of some experts and scientists regarding the effects of environmental deterioration on human health.

Later in 1970, a large demonstration was held where more than 2000 universities participated. It also had the participation of many schools and communities.

This was organized by environmental activist Gaylord Nelson. The success was so much that the U.S. government created the Environmental Protection Agency.

Several were also created in order to protect the environment.

In 1972, the Stockholm Earth Summit was held to raise awareness of world leaders at the time.

In 2009, the International Mother Earth Day was officialized by the United Nations.

Education to change…

Without a doubt education is a powerful tool to generate new habits in men. From home parents should teach children to respect nature.

With small actions that parents teach and complementing in school you can form a person conscious of living in harmony with the environment.

Without a doubt, environmental education should not be lacking at all levels of education.

On the other hand, the government must implement mechanisms for the collection of solid waste.

Respecting flora and fauna, in short they are small actions that can make a difference.

An S.O.S. of The International Mother Earth Day

What better than today 22 April to reflect on what actions we are taking for the environment. This should be the thoughtful question in the context of International Mother Earth Day.

Planet Earth manifests itself through a wake-up call and has its ways of doing it.

One of the ways we can see that cry for help is from the wildfires that have hit the Amazon, Australia, among others.

The invasion of locusts in Kenya, eruption of volcanoes and the current Pandemic of the Covid – 19 that plagues humanity.

Negative actions of man such as deforestation, intensive agricultural and livestock production or illegal wildlife trade. These are one of the many actions against nature

International Mother Earth Day is a special occasion to raise awareness and be an agent of change.

With positive actions that we join in this initiative will make a difference. It should be noted that we must leave human beings aware of the importance of caring for nature.
