This is Earth, our only home ... Stop hurting it now!

THIS is Earth. We are humans. We’ve known this for millions of years. This is the only home we have and may be the only one we’ll ever get. Let’s make it count. We need to wake up and start doing something about the big problems we have today.

Pollution, deforestation, poverty, animal cruelty, global warming, child labor, world hunger, and so much more. We all need to put our differences aside and do what needs to be done. There are many people trying to teach others to understand each other and solve the big problems humanity has. But it’s not enough. No matter if you’re jobless, a small business owner, retired, or a student in school, we need everyone’s help. Start making the world’s goals a reality.

We need to fight against sexism, racism, and bigotry. We can’t accept this any longer. We need to make a difference. Friends, families, communities, countries, we make up the world. No one can do it alone. So don’t just read this and return to your normal lives. Make changes, help people. Nobody said life was easy, but if we actually do something about it, we can help improve the lives of millions of people around the world.

This is Earth, our only home. If we don’t stop hurting it now, who knows what will happen next. What will happen to your future children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren? They need clean water and air, strong bonds with other relationships, and better living spaces. What will happen to the millions of other species that also roam the earth? This is why we need you. Everyone. What better day to start than now. You can do something. You can do anything. We all can.
