Fun Activities that Help to Protect Our Environment

HERE ARE 6 SUPER-FUN WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY ACTIVITIES TO HELP IN PROTECTING OUR ENVIRONMENT:


Environment Day T-Shirt tote bag
As we all know that Plastics are harmful to everyone and everything–land, ocean, plants, animals, and us. On this world environment day t-shirt bag activity, you will learn to recycle your old t-shirt and transform it into a cloth bag that you can take to the grocery store on your next visit. No stitching required!


Wind Turbine

With no pollution or greenhouse gas emissions, wind turbines can be very efficient when properly located to harness the large amounts of energy provided. You could teach your child all these benefits while you make a simple windmill by reusing paper cups and paper. Let’s begin with this world environment day wind turbine activity!




Cardboard Box Holder
When there are too many cardboard boxes at home, the easiest way to get rid of it is to throw them into a dustbin. But let’s take a minute and think about our planet. The Earth has way too much waste accumulated in all the wrong places. So what do we do?
We need to learn to reuse, reduce, and recycle materials—as much as we can and as soon as we possibly can! Take the cardboard boxes, for example; you can create a lot of interesting products without being a craft expert. Here’s one for you: World Environment Day Cardboard Box Holder! All you need is a few scraps of paper and a pair of scissors! Don’t believe it? Watch this!



WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY


World Environment Day is celebrated on the 5th of June every year. It was started in 1972 by the United Nations Assembly when the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment began. Every year, the UN chooses different themes and different locations for the celebrations. The first event was celebrated in 1974 in the United States and the theme was ‘Only One Earth’.

“Celebrate Biodiversity: 2020”

The theme for 2020 is  “Celebrate Biodiversity” , and will be hosted in Colombia in partnership with Germany. Colombia is one of the largest “Megadiverse” nations in the world to hold 10% of the planet’s biodiversity. Since it is part of the Amazon rain forest, Colombia ranks first in bird and orchid species diversity and second in plants, butterflies, freshwater fish, and amphibians.

Thus, on this occasion of a special day, I am sharing a Quiz Link with you all through which you can enhance your knowledge and it will also help you to know about some facts of our environment.

It won’t take more than 10 minutes but gives you a lot. So don’t skip…
