April 22; World Earth Day is celebrating every year by Environmentalists and environment enthusiasts and activists in 193 countries around the world. At the same time, Iran is celebrating the World Earth Day on Ordibehesht 2, for a whole week, same as other countries in the world . The purpose of this celebration is to raise the awareness and express appreciation of the environment and earth. In fact we need this planet more than the planet needs us, and right now, the earth is the only planet which we are able to live in, and it is our responsibility to protect it and taking care of it. Living in a infected and unclean place with different types of pollutants, garbage, industrial and household wastes alongside the noise pollution, all are threatening for ecosystems and the urban environment; and nowadays it’s one of the most dangerous lifestyles.
