50th Earth Day anniversary

-

Even though this is no time for any celebrations given the Coronavirus pandemic, clean air and growing ozone due to worldwide lockdowns is a bittersweet for all nature and environment lovers. On a day like today it's best if we all can make a promise to ourselves, that even after the pandemic, we will try our utmost to keep the air and water clean.

We have done enough to harm the planet and we take the Coronavirus pandemic as a soft slap on the back of humankind. On this day, let's be mindful not to make that same mistake ever again, because the next one from nature could be worse.

We wish you well and keep safe!
