The International Day of Clean Air for Blue Sky is observed every year on 7th September. It was declared by the United Nations to raise awareness about the importance of clean air and to remind people across the world to take action against air pollution. The theme of this day is to ensure a healthy planet and a better quality of life for everyone.
Air pollution is one of the biggest environmental challenges we face today. It harms human health by causing diseases like asthma, lung infections, and even heart problems. It also damages the environment, reduces visibility, and contributes to climate change. Millions of people, especially children and the elderly, suffer because of dirty air.
On this day, people are encouraged to adopt eco-friendly habits such as using public transport, planting more trees, reducing the use of plastic, saving electricity, and avoiding burning waste. Governments and organizations are also urged to make strict laws and policies to control industrial emissions and promote renewable energy.
Clean air is a basic need, just like food and water. Without it, life cannot survive. By working together, we can make our skies blue again and ensure a safe and healthy future for the coming generations.
The International Day of Clean Air for Blue Sky reminds us that protecting the environment is not just a duty, but also a responsibility towards ourselves and the Earth.
