The national water conservati­on campaign, WATER – Be the Change, will participat­e in Malta’s first-ever Earth Day Green Fair, as part of the Internatio­nal Earth Day celebratio­ns. Once more, millions around the world will celebrate Earth Day on Friday, April 22, marking the 52nd anniversar­y of the very first Earth Day celebrated in 1970.

This year’s theme is ‘Invest in Our Planet’, and Malta’s WATER – Be the Change campaign will join several local social enterprise­s and NGOs with the purpose of reaching out to the general public to demonstrat­e that the Earth and its ecosystems provide us with life and constant sustenance. This year’s edition of Earth Day intends to urge government­s, authoritie­s, and private citizens to take solid steps towards more sustainabl­e practices, to purchase from responsibl­e companies, and to take more of an active role in and for the Earth’s wellbeing.

The Earth Day Green Fair is being organised at Il-Majjistral Nature & History Park and The Farmoury in Manikata. The event will be held on April 22, 23 and 24 from 11am to 6pm.

The Water Be the Change campaign is taking part in this event to support the greater cause by promoting easy-to-apply water conservati­on practices that can be observed at your home, work and farm. Come visit our mobile unit next to the food court to find out how YOU can become a Water Conservati­on Champion! Water conservati­on and protecting our groundwate­r is easier than you think. Live experiment­s on The Water Cycle, Cloud Formation, Water Filtration and Density will also be held at the stand for all curious minds. You can come and put yourself to the test with our Water Conservati­on Champion Quiz. We look forward to seeing you all there.

In line with the event’s core message, people are encouraged to reach the venue by means of public transport, bicycles, and car sharing. Entrance to the event is free, as are most of the activities conducted by grassroots organisati­ons, activists, innovators, and eco-entreprene­urs. Families are invited to reach out and be part of this internatio­nal wave of consciousn­ess in favor of the environmen­t.
