Por años se ha hablado en escuelas, universidades y medios de comunicación sobre la importancia de cuidar del planeta; además, se nos señala cómo el hacerlo impacta de forma directa en la manera en que decidimos vivir. El cuidado del planeta es deber de todos, y las pequeñas acciones que podemos hacer suman en gran medida al alcance de nuestros objetivos.
Veamos de forma breve cómo influyen en nuestra vida las decisiones que tomamos en torno al medio ambiente.

¿Por qué cuidar del planeta es más importante que nunca?

Why is caring for the planet more important than ever?

The motto of this year's International Health Day declared by the WHO says: "Our planet, our health". That gives us a lot to think about, doesn't it?
Caring for the planet and its influence on our health should interest us in the same way that we are interested in maintaining hygiene in our homes so that we don't get sick.
According to recent studies by the European Environment Agency, environmental pollution is linked to 13% of deaths worldwide. Indiscriminate logging and hunting not only depletes our resources at an alarming rate, but also endangers the wildlife that is so important to us.
Pollution of rivers and lakes brings disease, and air pollution contributes to global warming and some of the climatic phenomena that worsen every year.
We are experiencing more and more heat waves or floods in areas where it was not usual to have them; that is only part of the negative impact that man's bad actions have had on the planet.

Cómo cuidar el planeta es también preservar nuestra salud y estilo de vida

How to take care of the planet is also to preserve our health and lifestyle.

Desde que me mudé a la Isla de Margarita participo en Jornadas de Recolección de desechos en la playa, junto a un equipo que se llama "Rescata tu Isla" , estas jornadas se tratan de ir los fines de semana a una determinada playa y recoger toda la basura, plásticos y colillas de cigarrillos que dejan las personas .Les muestro una foto con parte del equipo haciendo la labor.

It is still possible to curb the negative impact being caused to the environment, and everyone must be part of the solution.
We may think that anything we can do to help the environment will be overshadowed by the bad actions of other people and companies; however, the truth is that, between all of us, change is much more evident.
We can, for example, avoid polluting our streets and fields, change plastic for biodegradable resources, opt for recycling and eliminate the consumption of products that come from the indiscriminate hunting of animals or logging.
If our streets and waters are clean, new diseases are less likely to occur, and we can allow the planet to repair itself naturally by reducing the negative impact we have had so far.
Thanks to this, our health and lifestyle can be preserved for much longer, and new generations will receive a cleaner world than the one we received. Remember, our planet, our health.
Since I moved to Margarita Island, I have been participating in waste collection days on the beach, together with a team called "Rescata tu Isla" (Rescue your Island), these days are about going on weekends to a certain beach and collecting all the garbage, plastics and cigarette butts that people leave on the beach.

4- Se hizo los títulos utilizando los tipos de letras :
Open Sand Extra Bold tamaño 90.7, Adhaya Libre Regular tamaño 95,9 y Open Sand tamaño 98

And now to finish I will show you how I made this poster in the Canva tool to support this initiative:

1- I placed a sky background "Photo of Blue Sky".
2- Search for a tree image " Vector Image".
3- Then search for an image of a planet. In my case I used "Shiny Earth Icon".
4- We made the titles using the fonts :
Open Sand Extra Bold size 90.7, Adhaya Libre Regular size 95.9 and Open Sand size 98.

Espero mi participación sea del agrado de todos. Gracias
