"Earth Day"

Earth Day is a moment in time for us to think in terms of our way of life, our aspirations, our philanthropy.Earth Day commemorates earth health and promotes making the environment cleaner and safer. Its connection with war is that munitions pollute the environment and mines are safety hazards. Wars also threaten the world's genetic heritage and hence its capacity to feed itself in the future. International Earth Day also seeks to restore balance in the ecological community and within the human community by addressing issues relating to the environmental, global peace and justice. The threat posed by large scale warfare between nations has given way to civil unrest and ethnic or religious turmoil within countries.
