Well, to be honest, I do believe that people are becoming more aware of the urgent need to protect our planet. However, awareness doesn’t always turn into real action. There are some people who say they are trying to protect the environment, yet they keep engaging in unsustainable habits like overusing plastic, wasting resources and buying fast fashion. So yes, awareness is… So yes, awareness is growing but genuine commitment is still missing. Nowadays, our society is witnessing a positive shift, especially among young people who are trying to protect the planet by talking to companies who are responsible for polluting the environment. They’re also trying to aware people online. So yes, that’s honestly inspiring as it shows that were not just talking, were acting. And I’ve always felt, yet, yet, yet, there are some people who are acting as if the planet will magically fix itself. I’ve always felt connected to nature somehow, and nowadays I’m trying to live more sustainably by reducing my waste, and also I’m trying to encourage my friends and families to do the same. So in the end I would like to say that to protect our planet we need cooperation and it shouldn’t be a temporary trend. In fact it should be a long life commitment we all should do.
