WED - Shop Green and Connect With Nature !

World Environment Day is a celebration of environment and the benefits it bestows upon us; and a reminder of the fact that we have to save and protect our environment for our progenies.

The idea is to promote awareness on the importance of preserving biodiversity, the need to identify issues related to environment and find out ways to take corrective action.

 World environment day is also a celebration of brotherhood, wherein people from different nations come together and think about ways and means to protect environment collectively. As they come together, they pledge to make our planet a clean and green place to live in.

Now in its 38th year, World Environment Day is also known as the Environment Day, Eco Day or short form WED. World Environment Day, June 5 2017, is a day for everyone, everywhere. Since it began in 1972, it has been one of the great annual events for years which is being celebrated worldwide by the people aiming to raise awareness of the importance of respecting and doing your bit for the environment.

The theme for World Environment Day 2017 “Connecting People to Nature” implores us to get outdoors and into nature, to appreciate its beauty and its importance, and to take forward the call to protect the Earth that we share. This year’s theme invites you to think about how we are part of nature and how intimately we depend on it. It challenges us to find fun and exciting ways to experience and cherish this vital relationship.

We, as civilians can also participate in World Environment Day celebrations at our end. We can contribute a lot in creating and having an Eco-friendly environment - by organizing plantation camps, cleaning the surroundings drive, beautifying neighborhood campaign, organizing programs for raising awareness about organic foods, etc.

Though many of our products are not green, at our store we  can still boast of quite a stock that are Eco-friendly. Toilet sets, shower heads, sealants, light bulbs etc are examples to name a few. Today, celebrate World Environment Day by Shopping Green. 

What part are you playing in protecting the Environment? Caring for our environment is our duty and obligation; thus, we can help in conserving the nature and create an Eco-friendly environment. So let’s do it for future generations.   

                                           Happy World Environment Day!
