Bhumi Pednekar, one of the unconventional actresses from Bollywood has also earned fame with her awareness of climate change and global warming. The actress has quite often held flags and posters to advocate the serious issues and signs of global warming. Here’s what she said about it as stated in daily pioneer.
She said, “If we all want to be centred, grounded, patient, we have to form a connection with Mother Earth. I’m blessed that my parents named me Bhumi aka earth aka soil. So, I guess they preempted that I would grow up to do my bit for the nature that nourishes us in every way possible.”
She added, “We are in a reality where we can’t ignore the fact that if we are sustainable, we can save lives and on World Soil Day, I would nudge everyone to do their bit to learn, educate and practice the art of sustainability. It will save our planet. We’ve seen the worst happening globally from forest fires, hail storms, cyclones, floods, droughts in the recent past. If we still do not understand the importance of course correction, we are soon going to reach a point of no return.”
She continued, “Though I had always felt a deep bond with causes related to nature and environment, I think my connection to what I believe in grew stronger when I decided to have a sustainable garden at my home. My mother and I spoke about it at length and we decided that sustainability is the way forward for the Pednekar family. The process of building the right soil that nourishes us today with so many fruits and vegetables made me realise that I must talk about this to everyone and try and urge people to also look at sustainability as the way forward.”
