Happy Earth Day!🌍🎉 On this day, we reflect and celebrate the interconnectedness of people, nature, and climate. We envision a new era in which we can meet people’s needs while addressing climate change and protecting nature. We see a world where everyone can enjoy clean air, walkable cities, vibrant landscapes, nutritious food, and affordable energy, where ecosystems are thriving, where the climate is stable. What the world needs is a great transition. And World Resources Institute — a trusted partner for change — has the research, coalitions, and global reach to help get it right.

Today, we celebrate Earth Hour, a global event that unites people around the world in a shared commitment to protect our planet. Earth Hour is more than just an hour for the planet - it's a movement for our future, a time to acknowledge our responsibility towards the preservation of our world. By turning off our lights for one hour, we make a powerful statement about the urgent need for action on climate change. But Earth Hour is not just about what we do during that one hour. It's about what we continue to do throughout the year to make a difference. It's about changing our habits, making more sustainable choices, and inspiring others to do the same. So, as we switch off our lights tonight, let's remember that every action counts. Let's continue to strive for a sustainable future, not just for us, but for generations to come. Happy Earth Hour! 🌍💡🌃 #EarthHour #ClimateAction #Sustainability

This session will be of utmost importance, as I anticipate it will effectively underscore the stark contrast between the concepts of sustainability and regeneration. I think that we need informative sessions like those offered by organizations like RegenIntel to understand the essential need for a bold shift from the sustainability paradigm to the regenerative paradigm. We need the regenerative paradigm to be able to dissolve the growing interconnected crises we are facing the world over. #regeneration #regenerative https://lnkd.in/d34J6-gc

Today, as the international community comes together to celebrate World Earth Day, we should pause and reflect on our shared responsibility to protect our planet's future. At Shifted Perspectives , we believe in the power of mobile storytelling to inspire action and drive meaningful change, especially in the area of climate action. Today, as we celebrate Earth Day, we want to not only enjoy the beauty and wonder of the natural world, but also recognize the need for urgent action to address the pressing challenge of climate change. Sustainable Development Goal 13: Climate Action acts as a guide and reminds us of the importance of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, building resilience and promoting sustainable practices. In the spirit of Earth Day, we are proud to announce our tree planting efforts as a tangible expression of our commitment to the planet. Trees are not only powerful carbon sinks that help mitigate the effects of climate change, but they also provide important ecosystem services, from cleaning the air we breathe to maintaining biodiversity. By investing in tree planting, we invest in the future of our planet and future generations. Every tree planted is a symbol of hope and the promise of a greener, more sustainable world for everyone. As we look ahead to next year's Earth Day, we imagine a world where actions today pave the way for a better tomorrow. Join us on this journey towards a more sustainable future. Together, let's make every day Earth Day and ensure our planet thrives for generations to come.

Tonight, we're taking part in Earth Hour—a global movement to raise awareness about climate change and the importance of sustainable living. 🌿 Join us by switching off non-essential lights for one hour, from 8:30 to 9:30 PM local time. By participating in Earth Hour, we're sending a powerful message: that together, we can make a difference in protecting our planet. Let's use this hour to reflect on our impact and commit to taking action for a greener, more sustainable future. 💡💚 #EarthHour #ClimateAction

🌞 Today marks the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. As we enjoy the extra hours of daylight, it’s a perfect moment to reflect on sustainability and our impact on the planet. The Summer Solstice reminds us of the Earth's tilt and its annual journey around the sun, which sustains all life. It's a powerful reminder of our interconnectedness with nature and the importance of preserving our environment for future generations. In today's world, where climate change and environmental degradation are pressing challenges, each of us has a role to play in promoting sustainability. Whether it's reducing our carbon footprint, supporting renewable energy, conserving water, or advocating for policies that protect our ecosystems, every action counts. How do you plan on celebrating Summer Solstice? #WhatsYourImpact #SummerSolstice #Sustainability #ClimateAction #Environment #GreenFuture
