World Environment Day is coming up and itβs raining numbers at United Way Bengaluru! 5th June is observed as World Environment Day across the world. This day is important in order to remember that we will get this world with all its wondrous gifts only once.
The choice is ours!
We can choose to ignore, neglect and desecrate all of these. Or we can preserve and love each tree, each sapling, each creature that walks on it however small, love each drop of water that falls to the earth and revere each grain of soil that yields food for us to eat.
At United Way Bengaluru we have made our choice!
All year round, we treat the earth with reverence and care. We nurture and protect, we respect and preserve, in the knowledge that this is all we have, to give to the future that comes after us.
While we do consider that every day of the year is World Environment Day, June is special, because we can achieve scale without too much effort. This June, we want to plant as many saplings as possible and make and disperse 100000 seed balls from across the 17 lakes that we have helped to rejuvenate.
If you join us, you can be part of a movement that has seeded close to 200000 trees during a single month! The earth has the capacity to absorb and multiply our good efforts β what we seed on this day can grow 10-fold over the years!
Come make a difference! We will begin this movement on 5th June, and will be continuing it through the month β at locations close to you!
