The all-Russian campaign “My Day of the Earth” is running from April 20 to 26. And everyone who is not indifferent to environmental problems will be able to make their own choice how to save the nature.

The organizers offer a set of simple, eco-friendly actions suitable for the quarantine situation:

– use a reusable protective mask;

– take a reusable bag when you go to the store or pharmacy;

– sort waste and share your progress in these activities;

– create a poster / image/meme / motivator on environmental topics;

– replace the incandescent lamps with LED lamps;

– help a homeless animal or animal shelter;

– read a book or watch a film on environmental issues;

– watch an eco-lesson online;

– come up with some other ideas beneficial for our planet suitable during the lockdown.

Participants are requested to publish photo and video results of their contribution to the international Day of the Earth from April 20 to 26 in social media with a special hashtag #мойденьземли.

The event was organized by EKA movement and the platform Ecowiki.ru with association of the “green” universities of Russia. They hope that the action will find a response in the hearts of many people who share the idea that our planet needs to be protected 365 days a year, and not only on special occasions.
