"The thing that comes to my mind when I think of what I would want to wish for earth is let's reduce the use of plastic on a day to day basis. we have to do something to protect our planet that nurtured us. It is calling out for our help. We have already caused a lot of harm unknowingly and in some cases knowingly," he says.
Arjun adds, "We have seen our marine life suffer. The fear and anxiety of our future generation suffering knowing that only nine per cent can be recycled of the plastic that is there in this world so the other ninety-one per cent might never be recycled and it might just remain on this earth. That's scary!"

I know its a small thing but for me it was a big start. I believe small changes matter and I am a climate warrior. Are you?"
