World Environment Day

Today is World Environment Day - a day for positive environmental action. I try to make everyday (well almost) a positive environmental action day but on this day across the globe, people come together to bring awareness about our environment and take action.



So what are you going to do? Well it really is up to you - perhaps plant a tree, plant a veggie garden, walk instead of take the car, teach your kids about recycling, pick up rubbish, turn off the tv or turn off the lights. These actions all have a positive effect on our environment.

Funny enough our day started with my girls getting up at 5.30am. They were playing in their room quite well until 5.45am when we had a power blackout.  5.46am screams from two little girls!  So we all got up and sat in the dark for a while, then lit a candle and played together. A great way to start World Environment Day I think :)

Whatever you do I hope you have a beautiful day on this beautiful planet. Go outside, take a good look around you and appreciate the wonder of nature and the World we live in.

  1. Pumpkin had a mufti day at school on Friday for Environment day so she's all up on what's going on. She's with her Dad this weekend but made sure that when I dropped her off I told him that they had to go to a park on Sunday so that they could spend time with the environment ;-)
    On another note... on the way to Pumpkin's Dad's in the car she was reciting reduce, reuse, recycle... when I asked her what reduce means she said "it's when you use the juice again" :-) probably need to have a bit more of a chat about that!
