🐢 World Sea Turtle Day | June 16

Sea turtles have navigated our oceans for more than 100 million years — long before humans ever set foot on this Earth. Yet today, all seven species of sea turtles are classified as endangered or vulnerable, threatened by plastic pollution, fishing nets, coastal development, and climate change.

This World Sea Turtle Day, let's remind ourselves that the health of our oceans and the survival of sea turtles are deeply connected. Protect one, and you protect the other🌊

🌍 World Environment Day 2026🌱

Our planet is sending clear signals—rising temperatures, changing climates, and increasing environmental challenges. Today, we are reminded that every action matters.

This year's theme, "Climate Action," calls on all of us to move beyond awareness and take meaningful steps toward a sustainable future.

Together, let's protect our water, conserve biodiversity, reduce pollution, and build a resilient world for generations to come.

🌿 Small actions today. Big impact tomorrow.

“සත්‍යය ඔබ ළගමය.
තථාගතයන් වහන්සේට කළ හැක්කේද මග කියා දීම පමණකි.
එය සොයා ගත යුත්තේ ඔබමය.”

රෝග බිය දුරු වී සැම සුවපත් වන
පින්බර වෙසක් මංගල්‍යයක් වේවා !
