Bhumi Pednekar Plans To Create Awareness About World Environment Day
Actress Bhumi Pednekar is planning something special on World Environment Day, which is coming up on June 5, she looks to bring more awareness on the subject.
The actress Bhumi Pednekar just took to her social media and dropped a video. She captioned it, “This week is going to be full of surprises and tons of fun as #ClimateWarrior  celebrates #WorldEnvironmentDay:) We are kick-starting it with what is your #OneWishForTheEarth? I have my friends and peers from the industry who have been kind enough to share their wish. We will also be celebrating eco-friendly and sustainable #smallbusinesses and be in conversation with our little Climate Warriors from the ages of 4 to 8yrs...they are just so cute Heart suit Also, a special mention to a very special launch (stay tuned to find out more Nerd face)”
“The sole effort put behind all of these activities has been a joy-ride and a learning process for me. I look forward to creating more and more awareness about the environment and our natural surroundings by learning to co-exist. Lots and lots of love, Climate Warrior (Bhumi)”
In the video, Bhumi is seen saying, "Climate change, as a concept, is still not considered a real issue today by a lot of people. There are such varied and grave climatic issues that are happening across the world, which people are not even realising -- like increase of famines, forest fires, droughts, floods, melting ice caps, sea levels increasing, food and crop getting destroyed, heat waves across countries and continents"
"Climate Warrior is an initiative that is very close to my heart. It aims to focus on awareness building and engaging with the youth across India so that we become more conscious of our climate and environment, to encourage passionate advocacy for its conservation and protection. It makes us think towards making environment-friendly life choices...For World Environment Day, Climate Warrior is starting a small campaign -- One Wish For The Earth. At this time and in this current scenario, there are many issues that the world is facing as an impact of the climate crisis. What our campaign endeavours to do is get thought leaders from my industry to tell the world what is the 'one wish they have for the earth'. I can't wait to share their thoughts to make the Earth a better place. Let's pledge for climate justice and let's unite to save our planet," she said.
Meanwhile on the work front, Bhumi will next be seen in Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare and Durgavati.
