Investing in our Planet
Earth Day is celebrated every year
on 22nd of April since 1970. It was first
observed to protest against 1969 Santa Barbara
oil spill 1969, that had adversely affected many
aquatic beings like sea, birds, dolphins, seals etc.
It was proposed by Serator Gaybrd Nelson.
The day basically aims to spread awareness about
issues like global warming, deforestation,
environmental pollution and so on. A number
of campaigns, drives and events are organised
to motivate people to join hands with one another
to help find solutions to the problems plaguing
our planet in the present day scenario.
The theme of Earth Day 2022, as decided by
UNESCO is -INVEST IN OUR PLANET to promote
Sustainable Development.
We, the members of the Social Science
club, K.S.S. Jain College of Education had
presented a Wall Magazine titled, 'Earth-O-Pedia'
which constituted write ups, drawings, poster and
awareness placards to enrich the students of our college
about the importance of Earth Day. Our collaborative efforts
had been channelized into a successful presentation through the
able guidance of our mentors. Mr. Subrata Majumdar, Mrs. Piyali Banerjee,
Mrs. Dipanwita Biswas, Mrs. Beauty Raha & Mrs. Ankita Das.
