Our planet is the home of all life; from the air we breathe to the water we drink, from fertile soils to vast oceans, everything we depend on this world. However, for years we have been using these riches offered by nature in an unprofitable manner, creating irreversible damage. There is an important fact that we must now realise: It is time to pay our debt of loyalty to our world and all living things. The steps we take today will directly affect future life. We can change this situation by taking action together.

With the ‘One Day for the Earth’ event, we can give our world the breath it needs and remember the importance of respecting the right to life of all living things. With the silence fast and consumption break, we can stop our habits that harm nature and reconnect by listening to its rhythm. By protecting all living creatures, from stray animals to wildlife, we will not forget that they are an integral part of nature. Environmental clean-ups by everyone together raise awareness to protect every area from oceans to forests; conscious steps such as recycling and clean energy help us lay the foundation for a sustainable future.

This event contributes not only to the environment but also to social solidarity. A day without violence, discrimination and wars allows us to imagine a more peaceful world with the universal language of love and peace. This one day is also an opportunity to support people in need around the world and to feel the healing power of sharing.

Our future lies in our respect for nature and every responsible step we take. By protecting our world, it is in our hands to leave clean air, healthy water sources and a green world to our children. Let's come together on this special day to pay our debt of loyalty to our world and present a livable future to all living things. Let us not forget that it is possible to create a more beautiful world and it is in our hands.
