June 5th- World Environment Day

Environment day is observed every year on June 5th. Environment can be defined as the surroundings in which we live. Birds, animals, water, mountains and sky all comes under Environment. To maintain all these in good condition, the process of conservation is a must. Let’s make some little effort in order to protect the environment.


· Act towards minimising air, water and sound pollution.

Reduce the use of crackers, minimise garbage, segregate degradable & non degradable waste, avoid dumping near water bodies, participate in cleaning works, adapt to car- pooling and cycling, plant more trees, include Ashoka trees.


· Try to install solar plant and use solar power as far as possible.

This can be installed in households too. Basing on the requirement, the size can be altered and fixed in a suitable place in the terrace.


· Use gadgets only for purposeful activities.

Technology needs to be put to use with care &concern for the nature.


· Electricity can be used in a limited way by switching to more natural form than electric appliances. Like opting for a brick chimney, consuming no power, making no sound and requiring no cleaning. (concept from an article of Architect Sathya Prakash Varanashi who works on eco-friendly designs)

· Support the groups that organise awareness camps & campaigns.

Participate in nature walks and talk shows about conserving wildlife, restoring sanctuaries, Zoos, Parks & beaches.


· Get to know more about techniques and ways to save environment.

Rain water harvesting & avoiding plastics are the major ones in this regard.


· Minimise paper waste and don’t teach children about use & throw.

· Practice recycle, repair, re use.
