Today is World Environment Day with a focus on land restoration, desertification and drought resilience.
Here are 5 ways you can make a positive impact:
-
MAKE AGRICULTURE SUSTAINABLE: Support local farmers, shop for sustainable and locally produced food products and beverages.
-
SAVE THE SOIL: Collect kitchen waste to use as compost in gardens or balconies or contribute to composting schemes.
-
BRING NATURE BACK TO OUR CITIES: Volunteer and contribute to the rehabilitation of degraded landscapes and ecosystems (rooftops and gardens in urban areas).
-
BRING BACK THE BUZZZ: Attract pollinators, including birds and butterflies to gardens by planting diverse native flowers.
-
REDUCE, REUSE and RECYCLE to help reduce the plastic waste ending up in our ocean (we’re doing our bit at HACCU supporting local and purchasing reusable cups!).
