Dia Mirza on Earth Day: The pandemic has made it clear that we have to change the way we live and consume

Dia Mirza is one of those celebs who believe in ‘walk the talk’. The former beauty queen has always been a supporter of environmental and social issues. The drop-dead gorgeous actress not just raises awareness about the importance of conservation but also implements the various methods and measures in her own life.

Today on the occasion of Earth Day, Dia opened up about sustainable lifestyles and how we as a society need to hold governments, industry and civil society accountable. Read on.

Speaking about the need of the hour, Dia told IANS, “We need to mobilise greater momentum now than ever before. Of course, personal behaviour change will make a difference, but along with learning to lead more sustainable lifestyles, we also need to hold governments, industry and civil society accountable. We need to imbibe and disseminate scientific facts which are now more accessible than ever before.”

Speaking about how the pandemic has shown us that change in lifestyle is the need of the hour, the Sanju actress said, “The ongoing pandemic has made it abundantly clear that we have to change the way we live, produce, manufacture and consume. Today, the health of every single human being and our collective harmony hangs in the balance and is closely linked with the well-being of mother nature. What we need to begin with is the dissemination of environmental literacy at all possible levels because we cannot save what we are ignorant about. The theme of Earth Day this year is a clarion call to restore the balance of the natural world on which all of life depends.”

Dia had recently revealed how she had opted for a ‘sustainable’ and ‘eco-friendly’ wedding to Vaibhav Rekhi back in February this year.
