#WorldOceanDay 💙
Oceans are home to an immense variety of life, produce half of the oxygen we breathe, regulate the Earth's temperature and sustain the planet's biodiversity.
Protecting them means adopting strict policies to fight against pollution, especially plastic pollution.
Derrière chaque victoire se trouve un combat.
Derrière chaque combat se trouve une stratégie.
Derrière chaque stratégie se trouve une détermination. La détermination est la clé d'un combat réussi.
On est déterminé.

Turning a concrete jungle into a green oasis 🌳💧🌇
Once covered by a multi-level freeway that saw over 160,000 cars driving over it per day, the Cheonggyecheon Stream in downtown Seoul was transformed into a beautiful public space with thriving local ecosystem.
Every year, cities generate 288 million tonnes of plastic waste, yet only 9% of it is recycled.
#WorldCitiesDay reminds us to step up our game to #BeatPlasticPollution in cities and everywhere.
Forests
"There are many known advantages of mixed forests," says Hans Pretzsch from the TU Munich. "Mixed forests are more ecologically valuable as a diverse habitat. They mitigate climate change because they store carbon dioxide longer and better."

Night thoughts
I am fascinated again and again by the beauty and power with which nature presents itself to us. This is Sequoia National Park in California, USA.💚🌿☘️🌳🌲🍀💚
A quick reminder for today
If the heat bothers you, plant a tree.🌿
If the water bothers you, plant a tree.🌱
If you like fruits, plant a tree.🌳
If you like birds, plant a tree.🌲
If you love your family, plant a tree.🍀
And if you like life, plant many trees.💚☘️🌿🌱🌳🌲🍀💚
Forests are more than just wood and are important for the water balance. The groundwater beneath a forest is clean, oxygen-rich and excellent for producing drinking water. That is why forests are particularly often also water protection areas.💚☘️🌿🌱🌳🌲🍀💚
Trees in streets make people spend more money!🌳🛍️
Shopping areas with trees are nicer places to be➡️so people spend more time there➡️and then spend more money.
These #Croydon business owners have filled their highstreet with trees through a crowdfunding campaign 👇
The journey of life continues with a new day, a new week and I wish my beloved and much appreciated fellow inhabitants of planet Earth a wonderful good morning and a blessed day filled with joy and peace. May God bless you, stay kind and healthy.❤️💙💚🌲☘️🌿🌱🌳🍀💚
Children and families in Gaza have practically run out of water.
They are now forced to use dirty water from wells, increasing risks of waterborne diseases.
We need an immediate humanitarian pause to ensure unhindered and safe access to children and families in Gaza.
More trees on earth could combat climate change more effectively than previously thought. This is shown in a study by ETH Zurich. It also says that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's 1.5-degree target for global warming is still achievable.💚🌲☘️🌿🌱🌳🍀💚
