Since its inception, Earth Day has marked important environmental events, including the signing of the 2015 Paris Agreement.<\/p>\n<p>This year the theme for Earth Day is \u2018Restore our Earth\u2019 bringing focus to climate change mitigation and actions we can take to restore our planet\u2019s ecosystems. Earth Day 2021 brings an opportunity to galvanize political action; the US President is hosting a virtual global summit at the White House to encourage world leaders to make pledges to cut carbon emissions by 2030. Later in the year the UK will be hosting COP26, another vital political moment.<\/p>\n<p>However, as well as having an environmental focus, Earth Day also provides a platform to discuss equity, climate justice and inequality. Climate change is a planetary emergency and while sustainable development can at times seem overwhelming or insurmountable, we all as individuals have the agency to bring change.<\/p>\n<p>There is a quote by Anna Lappe which in this year of climate action seems especially poignant: \u201c<em>every time you spend money you\u2019re casting a vote for the kind of world you want<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The choices we make as consumers can make a difference. Be more conscious of what you buy and its environmental impact, for example a single cotton t-shirt has up to 2,700 litres of water embedded in its production (waterwise.org.uk\/save-water)! Switch to a renewable energy provider if your circumstances allow. Engage with politics, register to vote, and hold your MP to account.<\/p>\n<p>You can check out some of our previous blogs for other great sustainable living tips <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.reading.ac.uk\/sustainability\/2019\/09\/19\/sustainable-university-living\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>While we all have different circumstances and challenges, we can all take steps towards a more sustainable future together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The publication of Rachel Carson\u2019s \u201cSilent Spring\u201d in 1962 marked a watershed moment in our planet\u2019s history, raising public awareness and concern for our environment, our wildlife and the links between pollution and human health.
