World Earth Day : An Essay by Anuska Guchhait

World Earth Day

World Earth Day is an annual event celebrated around the whole world on 22^nd April. The theme of 2021 is to “RESTORE OUR EARTH”.

It was first celebrated in 1970 and now more than 193 countries celebrate this event. World Earth Day is celebrated to demonstrate support for the protection of our environment.

It is intended to promote environmentalism. The SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) are a part of Earth Day. We can also take part in this event by doing several things that will protect our environment.

For example, instead of biking we can use cycle for short distances. Every year on our birthdays we can plant two to three saplings and take care of them.

Thus, there are many ways through which we can contribute a little to the environment and I think we should follow these steps and make the earth a better place to live in.

Accelerating Change to solve the water and Sanitation Crisis with Ancient Indian Technique - A write-up by Funlishian Tuhin Kanti Ghosh

It is a well known that our Earth, despite having ¾ of its surface covered by water doesn’t have enough water for humans. The reason, also known, is that 97 percent of it is saline water which is unusable. Of the 3 percent we do have, the expanding human population wasted and polluted much of it continuously to make way for water and sanitation crisis.

There are numerous ways in the internet for saving water that you can do. Another way to accelerate change c...

Wonders of Water - A poem by Ishaan Biswas, Grade IX, Funlish Language School

To the transparent water; O’ you nature’s daughter, How are you so calm, so cold? How do you grab the world ahold? Why are you so kind, to show the way to the blind? How are you so noble? Why do you even care for the smallest cobble? O’ the guardian of life, You are why we are alive. Why do you still love us, when we create a fuss? Thus you are our precious mother, you forgive us albeit we inflict disasters one after another. Thus is our oath to your kindness, we shall always be righteous. Hence we shall conserve every loch, for our succeeding flock.
