From eliminating plastic use to creating homemade fertilizers and nurturing plants, various celebrities are showcasing their unique contributions to environmental preservation. On Earth Day, they reflect on actionable steps to protect our planet.

### Ban on Plastic

This Earth Day, I plan to recycle several non-functional phones I have. In my housing society, we separate wet and dry waste, aiding the Mumbai BMC. However, the issue of plastic remains unresolved. I believe the government should impose a ban on plastic products and explore alternative solutions.

### Nurturing Plants

I have a passion for plants and often rescue those that others have discarded. I am diligent about separating wet and dry waste, minimizing my use of plastic bags, and composting food scraps for fertilizer. It's essential to educate children about planting; they are eager learners and can enjoy the process.

### Opting for Bamboo Bags

I completely avoid plastic products. Even during gatherings, I choose eco-friendly disposable cups and plates. I utilize garbage bags for waste segregation and use tea dust as fertilizer. When shopping, I rely solely on cloth bags. I advocate for a complete ban on plastic bags and suggest that bamboo alternatives be made affordable for vendors, as these small changes can significantly impact our environment.

### Eco-Friendly Fertilizer

I prefer cloth bags over plastic ones for shopping. Additionally, I repurpose kitchen waste as fertilizer for my plants, which helps eliminate harmful pesticides and enriches the soil.

### Tree Planting Initiatives

I feel immense gratitude towards Mother Earth. Although I lack a balcony, I still cultivate numerous plants at home. We should promote plant growth wherever possible and practice water conservation. I avoid plastic bags entirely and believe that planting a tree on birthdays sends a positive message.

### Importance of Small Actions

For me, ensuring the Earth remains healthy involves small, consistent actions. Simple tasks like turning off the tap, planting trees, and caring for existing ones may seem minor, but collectively, they contribute significantly to the planet's well-being.
