international biodiversity day
The United Nations has a special day on the 22nd of May 22nd, to celebrate this incredible variety of life. It's called International Day for Biological Diversity! On this day, we learn how to protect all the creatures and plants that share our world. We can plant a garden to attract butterflies, build a birdhouse for feathered friends, or even just pick up rubbish to keep our environment clean.
Remember, every small action helps! So next time you're outside, take a close look and see how many amazing things you can discover. Have a happy Biodiversity Day!
