It's October 18th, World Okapi Day. Deep in the heart of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, hidden in the dense rainforest, lives the mysterious and enigmatic okapi. In the wild, this shy, elusive creature is rarely seen by humans. When people do see an okapi for the first time (usually at a zoo), most imagine it must be related to the zebra because of its stripes, but the okapi is not related to the zebra - it's related to the giraffe, and is in fact the giraffe's only living relative.
World Okapi Day was created to celebrate this special, endangered animal and protect the Okapi Wildlife Reserve in which it lives. Despite the protected status of the reserve and its wild animals, the okapi's continued existence is threatened by habitat destruction, slash-and-burn agriculture, illegal gold mining, and bushmeat poaching. Today gives the Mbuti People who live in the reserve a chance to celebrate the hard work they've accomplished to conserve the natural environment they share with their national animal, which is so important to their culture and traditions.
Today is also a call to action for all of us all around the world. The okapi’s rainforest home is a habitat for thousands of species. It's also one of the largest land-based carbon sinks in the world, helping to mitigate climate change. What we all do can help protect this Congo Basin Rainforest. If we choose to live sustainably, we help the okapi. ☮️ Peace… Jamiese of Pixoplanet

Tuesday, 8 June - World Oceans Day 2021 As per the #UN , #WorldOceansDay is celebrated to inform the public of the impact of human actions on the #Ocean and to develop a worldwide movement of citizens for the oceans. It also suggests mobilising and uniting the world's population on a project for the sustainable management of the world's oceans. In 2008, World Oceans Day was declared as an official occasion by the United Nations (UN) which finalises different themes every year to celebrate the special day. This year's theme is 'The Ocean: Life and Livelihoods’, which focuses on the livelihood and life that oceans sustain. Every year, on the occasion of World Oceans Day, the world comes together to celebrate the largest water body on the planet. This day is observed to create awareness about the benefits provided by the oceans to human beings. From eating local, sustainably-sourced fish to stopping plastic pollution, we all have a role to play to save our oceans. #WorldOceansDay2021 #OceansDay2021 #OceansDay #WOD2021 #WOD _____________________________________________ The ongoing mission of "CHANGING LIVES 1 PLATE AT A TIME" is to contribute to the wellbeing of the vulnerable via giving them access to safe, healthy and nutritious food, ENDING HUNGER!
