Thursday, April 22, is Earth Day and the theme this year is “Restore Our Earth.” It’s dedicated to focusing on “natural processes, emerging green technologies, and innovative thinking that can restore the world’s ecosystems,” reports EarthDay.org. We must Restore Our Earth not just because we care about the natural world, but because we live on it. Every one of us needs a healthy Earth to support our livelihoods, health & survival, and happiness. A healthy planet is not an option — it is a necessity. Together, we can Restore Our Earth. From April 20-22, join the world’s leaders for Earth Day 2021.
