To all those concerned about our environment, our world, our climate and our future: We call on you to share your concern, your opinion, your piece that highlights the environmental issues we face and the measures we can take to combat them. This is a platform where all of us that care about climate action and preserving nature can come together. This is where we can make our voices one and lobby for a sustainable future.

We are one with nature and its elements. We can only survive if we compliment it and live within it. Going against nature and damaging it will only lead to our demise: nature will survive, albeit maybe in a different form.

So, we ask you to please share your piece with us at media@theenvironmental.org and we will share it here to get the word out to the world.
