There are several habits you can learn to help protect the environment. The ones depicted in this image are avoiding plastic straws, bottles, and bags, recycling glass and newspapers, donating reusable items instead of throwing them away, and riding a bike rather than taking a car.
I am a 17-year-old high school student whose country is dealing with millions of femicide in her country and I'm so done with the indifference that people show while numbers increase. Now nearly everyone has Instagram and it is started to be used as a news platform as well. And, with the current increase in femicides, people, nearly none of them being male, started the post this femicide on their stories, posts to make the oppressed women's voices heard. And as a teenager scrolling through these I realized that nearly none of the males show any interest in helping these. Then suddenly it came...
It’s been five months since the start of 2021, and while everyone this month will celebrate pride days can we also take a minute to talk about health awareness? More specifically; mental health. While many people have come out to their family and friends with pride, some are still struggling. And in a society as judgmental as ours, it puts a lot of pressure on our queer friends when they decide to come out. Depression, anxiety, eating disorders, mood disorders, ADHD are some of the few mental illnesses which are still taken too lightly. Since the pandemic has also made it a necessity to limit...
There are no authority socioeconomics for the LGBT populace in India, yet the public authority of India submitted figures to the Supreme Court in 2012, as indicated by which, there were about 2.5 million individuals who proudly identify themselves as a part of the community. These figures are just based on those people who have self-proclaimed to the Ministry of Health. There might be a lot higher measurements for people who have hidden their character, since various LGBTQ Indians are living in the closet because of dread of separation. Public conversation of homosexuality in India has been...
Tolerance, insight, flexibility and humility are the four pillars upon which the foundation of leadership stand, and all of these aspects are the culmination of two words: ‘Intercultural understanding’. When either of them falls, the whole foundation crumbles. In the 21st century, in which the world has become a global village with diverse cultures mixing with each other like clashing waves, I believe it is doubtless that a unifying platform is essential, a platform that can help rally people of different backgrounds, a platform that helps the communication between all races and creeds so that...
As the saying goes, “Home is not a place- it is a feeling.” I was an adolescent of 13 when I was rid of that feeling and was sent across one of the most hostile borders from my beloved country Afghanistan over to Pakistan. It happened in a flash and now I see it as a flashback, helpless as ever but now somewhat at peace with how things turned out After some threats from the Taliban, my school was forced to shut down. Consequently, my parents saw it fit to send me to the best international school in the region, in Pakistan. I arrived at that school with a few personal belongings, and survived...
The LGBTQ Community is just a group of people who have a certain sexual preference. What’s the big deal about it right? We are all open minded and accepting about it till we actually start to take notice of the things we do and say in our daily lives. I won’t be talking about anyone else but myself. I support the LGBTQ community now and I always did in the past as well. But if I say that I support a certain community but I humiliate friends who tend to resemble the people of that particular community then do I really mean it when I say I support the community? Because on one hand I verbally...
If you cut a tree 🌳, you kill a life If you save a tree you save a life. Trees make the environment cleaner and provide us with oxygen. In this painting I have shown that we need to start living sustainable life, decrease pollution, stop cutting trees, use 3R's and need to use sustainable technology to save our environment and our life's. We should say no to single use plastic, save water, save energy, plant more trees, and have to promote sustainable technology to have a Save Future.
Save Animals Save Forest Plant more trees 🌱 Use 3 R's ♻️ Reduce Footprint Use Green Energy 💚 Promote Sustainable Technology Follow sustainable ways of living Save Environment Save Our Planet 🌍 Save Life and our Future "I reimagine a Greener and Sustainable World where their is less disasters, where we would grow sustainability without harming the environment and where every species on this earth can live Happily and Peacefully"
It's raining in summer, hot sun in the middle of monsoon. Why? Why is all this happening? Don't blame the nature, we humans did this to them.I am putting up this on the world environment day, when i'm not sure if there is a proper environment. I am an Indian and in India the temperature is rising every year. Every year it's breaking the records. If it was 30°C last year it's 33°C this year. The climate is changing, its being unpredictable. It was all predictable and safe when the exploiting monsters were calm. Industries, vehicles, burning fossils everything done for present is destroying the...
"Staying at home, consider it as a privilege". The doctors said, to which i solemnly agree. India my home country has been undergoing it's worst phase and it has been more than a month of the deadly 2nd wave. More than the ones staying at home the brutality is being faced by the front line warriors . My heart and mind is just wishing for this dreadful nightmare to come to an end. Well all of us are. Not an hour passes by, without hearing the wailing sirens of an ambulance passing by or seeing the distant blue light blinking appearing and disappearing like a zoom. With every news of death in...
Education is expected to level the playing field for all, but the new mode of teaching is affecting different students in different ways. Online classes have come across to be an inequitable solution for students to continue with their studies in the ongoing pandemic- an ‘act of God’. While jobs, schools, colleges, and everything is shifting to the digital medium, not all houses have adequate numbers of devices to accommodate it all. To attend a day of classes requires huge data consumption and costs a lot of money. Colleges aren’t doing anything for students who cannot afford such things. We...
As the butterflies dance around the great green, the grand ballet of nature and life takes place, A kaleidoscope of colors - orange, black, white Like the balance of the world swirling across the last rays of the sun And they pirouette for all that is beautiful and warm - swaying like time and its grace Tiny feet - little black silk strings - tapping across the earth and him, Him- for all they know is goodness and a peaceful soul, Braveness shaped with a beating heart and bones, If the butterflies could sing, they would sing for him About the pines and their guardian - about the man that held...
There’s no denying the fact that we live in an extremely cash-centric society. This can make for a notably unbalanced life experience, in which the socioeconomic status of your family, your geographical location, and your racial background can dictate your path in life. There are also cyclical systemic issues, where those born into poverty can find it harder to escape it. This is particularly concerning given the fact that, as a single person, working 40 hours a week at a minimum wage job barely takes you over the U.S. guideline for poverty of $12,880. But it’s also important to note that just...
As a person who loves reading and spends more than 50 percent of my day on phone, it became necessary for me to know what sort of content, I am digesting. The majority of it is reading. I read not only paperbacks and hardcover but also from various sites and apps of comics and books. So in a time when everyone can be a writer, where everyone can be heard, we readers do need to know the validation of the content and the effect it has on us. I cannot condemn others for a thing that I enjoy myself too. I do understand the appeal of the perfect fantasy life or the need of escaping reality. However...
Our teachers' are our leader's, Our parents are our home, Our friends are our family, Our place in this world matters, So how are you going to change it? This world needs to take a break. People have lost the reason why they cared once upon a time ago. We have had many horrible things happen. Why not be the reason someone's day is better? The thing is that throughout reading this, you haven't once read about you or me. You haven't read about us. No, you haven't read about it because we haven't change the world. I mean who's, going to tell you that the world is hard, That you have to fight for...
Today on the 8th of June is World Ocean Day. On this day we celebrate the beauty of the oceans and biodiverse plants and animals that inhabit the sea. At the same time, this day reminds us that it takes our effort to conserve the health and beauty of our blue planet. Interconnectedness With the ocean’s surface covering more than 70% of the planet, it becomes clear that concerns about the climate have a bearing on the ocean as well. In other words, there is a distinct interconnectedness that permeates all living organisms and ecosystems on Earth. This idea is also reflected in this year’s theme...
I am a manifestation of my dreams A ring of fire The condensation on a cold winter morning I am, my desires and hopes And secrets and epiphanies I am so much of myself, And today I wonder and I question And I share it with you I see climate change happening I see its repercussions in real-time And I wonder how long we can afford to be ignorant Till it's looking at us in the face And we can't blink without feeling its presence We need a change And we need it now Here's what I decided to do And I invite you on this with me Switch to sustainable alternatives for menstrual hygiene Sanitary napkins...
I heard mother Earth crying. She was saying, "Please save me from this calamity. Humans are destroying me, killing me and ruining me. They don't know I can feel pain too; I have feelings too and I feel everything just like you! Humans are selfish, they build factories on my body! They kill animals, just for the sake of their taste buds! They keep polluting my whole body, by poisonous gases! They don't know what I can do, I can kill them all in a matter of two! But the time's not gone, they can still save me, by going eco-friendly!
