Earth Day 2021: 10 Environmental Organisations to Help Save Our Planet Share
In conjunction with Earth Day 2021 on 22 April, we’ll be discussing issues and providing resources for change.
It starts with acknowledging the fact that our planet is dying because of us. It’s our greed and expansionist mindset that is directly the cause of degradation of forests, endangerment of animal species, climate change, and many other serious factors that have brought our planet to the critical stage it stands on today.
But we still have time to make amends and do our part in making this world a better place for everyone. And there are people among us who have taken it upon themselves to fight for a better tomorrow. They know, and we too must understand, that the planet is not yours or mine alone; it belongs to all of us. And, therefore, when it comes to preserving it for ourselves and the future generations, we must join hands RIGHT NOW.

Rare footage of the world s biggest seagrass meadow2021|03:07
Beneath the waves, in a remote corner of the Indian Ocean, is the top of a mountain. Rising from the seabed thousands of meters below, it is the Saya de Malha bank. Scientists believe it s home to the largest seagrass meadow in the world - carpeting an area the size of Switzerland. That s important because this vast aquatic wilderness of carbon-dioxide capturing plants could play a crucial role in tackling climate change. It s the reason the Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise, with a team of scientists on board, navigated to the isolated spot - roughly located between the Seychelles and Mauritius. But getting there wasn t easy. The waters are relatively uncharted, and the wildly varying depths create, as University of Exeter ecology lecturer Dr Kirstin Thompson describes it, a strange place . And if you imagine it s like a towering bank that comes out of the seabed, the seafloor around it is thousands and thousands of metre
