Each year, Earth Day is celebrated worldwide on April 22 to show support for our environment. This year 2021, marked the 51st anniversary of Earth Day and the theme was ‘Restore Our Earth’. C-Park conducted a survey between April 21 and April 23, 2021, highlighting the need to preserve the Earth’s resources.
With the Covid-19 pandemic prevailing across the globe, we all are requested to stay home through frequent lockdowns and other Work from Home options. Having understood the current situation, C-Park emphasized how we can stay home and still extend our support to restore our Earth.
The 3-day World Earth Day survey comprised ten close-ended questions and two open-ended questions. In total, 90+ earthlings took part in the campaign and submitted their responses with genuine integrity and practicality. Many innovative strategies were proposed by the participants to restore our Earth that would cost nothing and might make a huge difference if practiced regularly. As a gesture of appreciation, e-certificates were issued to every participant.
The responses were evaluated by highly experienced Environmental Specialists and three winners were rewarded with exciting cash awards for their honest answers and valuable suggestions. At the end of the survey, a pledge was included which said, “I Pledge to protect, sustain, and improve the natural world and its resources around me” to instill the responsibility one should have towards our home, Earth.
To restore our Earth, it is important to understand that every day is an Earth Day. We need to focus on natural processes and emerging green technologies that can restore the world’s ecosystem. C-Park thanks every participant for taking the time to acknowledge and contribute towards a healthy environment. Let’s cherish our Earth and treat it as an extension of our backyards!
