The services that nature provides in sustaining our lives & livelihoods must define the way we respond to nature. We are not apart from nature, our lives are interlinked with it.

This year, the actress celebrates World Environment Day urging people to make as many sustainable changes, adding, “We don’t have a choice.”
“The foods we eat, the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the climate that makes our planet habitable all come from nature. Yet, these are exceptional times in which nature is sending us a message: To care for ourselves, we must care for nature. It’s time to wake up. To take notice. To raise our voices. It’s time to build back better for People and Planet. This World Environment Day, it’s Time for Nature,” Mirza iterated through her message video.
On this #WorldEnvironmentDay2020, let’s remind ourselves that the way we treat nature, will define the way our future is going to unfold. It is #TimeForNature. Here is my message through @Weatherindia!https://t.co/PqgCwI4aqs#DownToEarthwithDee @weathercompany #BuildBackBetter
