Excited to share, linking the right against climate change to Articles 21 and 14, Chief Justice Chandrachud said the rights to life and equality cannot be fully realised without a clean, stable environment. A profound insight from Chief Justice Chandrachud, highlighting the crucial link between environmental protection and human rights. In a recent judgment, the court recognized the impact of climate change on health, especially for marginalized communities, stating that it violates the right to life and equality. This perspective underscores the urgency of addressing climate change as a social justice and human rights concern. The judgment also highlighted the interconnectedness of climate change with various human rights, including indigenous rights, gender equality, and the right to development. This holistic approach calls for comprehensive strategies to combat climate change and protect human rights. Let's work together to create a sustainable future where environmental protection and human rights go hand in hand. 🌍💚  #ClimateAction #HumanRights #Sustainability #ENEN

TIME2 Share. Picture says a thousand words; every great man has a great support as motherhood alike. She stands as family, happiness, love and contentment It brings out the best and worst in you and a gift that not all of us get.  TIME2 CARE. The beauty of motherhood is in being there for every moment, big or small, and witnessing your child grow and flourish. Everything is filtered through a new lens of what that will mean for your child by working tirelessly to ensure your children are equipped with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed as adults later in life responsibilities as Raw, beautiful,  and nurturing is the central task.

According to the Climate & Clean Air Coalition, climate change and air pollution can affect women and men differently. Increasingly, women are shown to be more vulnerable than men to the impacts of climate change and air pollution, representing the majority of the world's poor and being proportionally more dependent on threatened natural resources. On International Women’s Day, learn how UNEP is working globally to promote gender equality and empower women to take the lead in combatting climate change and air pollution: https://lnkd.in/dkzijuxT

TIME2 SHARE for today’s doubts is what is the sense of journey. It is fueled by unexpected emotions with Time, Place and Speed of Change. The Role of Emotion Never Change. It all boils down to Care, Purpose and Value.  TIME2 CARE. To begin and to end the plastic pollution we need to open the doors where CARE comes first.  Above and beyond as all products need people to drive as Supply vs Demand. Without people's driving force as footprints for legacy, all products and objectives will fail to ZERO.  TIME2B. You are the person who expected to exist. Your TIMESHARE is now!
