The theme for Earth Day 2022 is "INVEST IN OUR PLANET", focusing on the effects of climate change on the planet that we all share and what efforts are being made in the real world to mitigate it. In keeping with the theme, Earth Day 2022 will center on "accelerating solutions to combat our greatest threat, climate change, and to activate everyone — governments, citizens, and businesses — to do their part" announced the organization. This April 22nd, check out ways to help in the cause with ideas for your own personal projects for observing Earth Day 2022: Earth Day Activity Ideas This year, Earth Day 2022 calls on everyone to divest from unsustainable investments; support eco-conscious brands and products; and to use your own skills and voice to fight climate change. There are also several ways to celebrate at home or your backyard using the concepts of "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle". • Take a weekend morning to scour the neighborhood for discarded plastics, cans, and bottles for a personal cleanup project that will help the entire community. If you live in a coastal area, this is especially important in helping to protect ocean wildlife. • Volunteer for Planet Saving Activities: Search online for Earth Day activities in your area. You may go on beach cleaning, awareness rallies, or other group activities. • Plant a tree: Trees are always a friendly and supportive gesture for the environment. As the body is for humans, the tree is for the planet. We need to protect trees as they fight global warming, and most importantly, they provide us with oxygen. Deforestation for the building houses and complexes is never a heroic act and a good decision to be made. Cutting trees lead to a deficiency of many supplements for survival. If one is concerned about the environment, he/ she should never cut an integral part of the same. So, plant a tree on Earth Day and contribute to nature's beauty. • Save Energy: The way we generate energy has a big impact on our planet. Therefore, this Earth Day, adopt energy-saving measures and help protect the planet. • Pledge to Limit the Use of Plastic: The ill-effects of plastics are too many. Therefore, celebrate Earth day by limiting the use of plastics.
