Voltar à terra

Earth Day & Dia da Terra

- Abril 22, 2020 -

Adoro a carta que recebi hoje:

*Nosso Planeta, Nossa Casa*

Nestes tempos de distanciamento social e confinamento, conseguimos ainda assim encontrar formas de elevar a nossa voz colectiva e exigir um futuro seguro para as nossas crianças e para a nossa casa comum, o planeta Terra.⁠⠀

Convidamos tod@s a juntar-se a nós num projecto de arte pelo Dia da Terra, com as nossas crianças ou a pensar nelas. Vamos utilizar os materiais que tenhamos em casa e desenhar, pintar, criar, ou modelar o nosso planeta, para afixar em janelas, varandas, portas da frente, jardins — em qualquer lugar com visibilidade.

Vamos utilizar os materiais que tenhamos em casa para demonstrar o nosso amor pela natureza, pelo ambiente, e pela nossa casa comum.

A luta pela nossa casa comum nunca foi tão importante. Neste momento de vulnerabilidade colectiva, existe uma janela de oportunidade para mudanças profundas para proteger o nosso planeta e o futuro das nossas crianças.

Junte-se a nós neste Dia da Terra, elevando as nossas vozes através da arte de protesto!

Love the letter I received today:

Anabela,

We can make a better world for everyone. Tell everyone you know about April 22 and join us at earthday.org.

Today marks the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day, as well as the first ever digital Earth Day. Beginning at 9am ET, join us online, as we flood the world with messages of hope, optimism and, above all, action.

*Our Planet, Our Home*

In these unprecedented times of social distancing and lockdown, many of us are spending more time than ever at home. While the coronavirus means we must keep our⁠ distance, we can still find ways to raise our⁠ collective voice this Earth Day to demand a safe⁠ future for our children on our shared home, planet⁠ earth.⁠⠀

We would love you to join us in an Earth Day global art project. We would like you to draw, paint, create,⁠ or model your own planet earth to display on⁠ windows, balconies, front doors, gardens; anywhere⁠ where people might notice.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Use the⁠ materials you have in your home to show your love⁠ for nature, the environment and our one shared⁠ home. We also have some printables to make it super easy.
⁠⠀

Follow along with us and our hosts Ed Begley, Jr., and his daughter, Hayden, on our website for a full day of videos and actions we can all take to better our planet. You’ll be joined by global leaders, activists, actors and musicians, including Pope Francis, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, Former Vice President Al Gore, Zac Efron, Dave Mathews, Jason Mraz, Dr. Sylvia Earle, Christiana Figueres and many more.
