On this International Mother #EarthDay2024 , let's remind ourselves that we need a shift to a more #sustainable economy that works for both people and the planet. 🌍

Happy Earth Day! 🌎

Managing our natural resources is not the responsibility of a select few. It is everyone’s duty. Let’s be stewards of the earth. Let’s have a mindset of sustainability and act in ways that preserve and protect our home(earth).

It’s time to switch from plans to action & heal our common home! 🌏

🌍 It has been an incredibly moving and fulfilling experience leading #UNGASustainabilityWeek .

The discussions, insights, and commitments made over the past five days have left me deeply inspired.

Together, we’re taking significant strides towards a more sustainable future

Creating a sustainable and better planet is a collective responsibility.
