What are some of the things you do that contribute in making peace with the environment?

The International Day of Peace is was observed on the 21st of September 2019. Established in 1981 by unanimous United Nations resolution, Peace Day provides a globally shared date for all humanity to commit to Peace above all differences and to contribute to building a Culture of Peace.
Green Quote of the week focuses on Environmental Peace; Peace with the environment is peace with thyself and it’s in line with this year's Peace Day theme which focuses on "Climate Action for Peace". In our Green Question of the week, we will like to know what you will did to promote Environmental Peace on this year's Peace Day or what you are doing or have done to promote environmental peace.

“It is possible to achieve our goals, but we need decisions, political will and transformational policies to allow us to still live in peace with our own climate.” -- Secretary-General António Guterres
