Commemorated annually on April 22, the theme for this year’s Earth Day is Restore Our Earth. xUnfortunately, in many parts of the world, this year’s Earth Day and the focal theme to Restore Our Earth appeared to have gone unnoticed as awareness about the Mother Earth crisis is still deficient in many quarters. Projects like plastic pollution prevention, awareness and education, resource management and zero-waste, renewable energy, etc. Primary among these interventions is the quest to provide electricity through renewable energy sources, especially solar power, to its citizens under the Rural Electrification Agency. On this 51st anniversary of World Earth Day, DDI celebrates all its donors, partners, and grantees while calling for a renewed commitment of all stakeholders to expand the scope of its renewable energy coverage, as a way of contributing to the restoration of our Earth for the benefit of humankind.
