Rainbow Warriors

I joined this challenge to educate our kids from home since we can make small changes in the family to save the planet

I learnt about microplastics and how they can affect our health. It was a scary read for sure. On the single use plastic subject, here in Mexico we've had laws for about 5-7 years now, prohibiting the use of plastic bags in the supermarket and clothing stores. I started to use them way before that, as well as water bottles. It's good to see...

Today being new year for us, attended tree plantation drive organized to plant 400 saplings in our area by the community folks. It was nice feeling to ensure greenery is back with the concrete jungle in the vicinity.

I planted sunflowers around my veggie garden to attract the bees.
