Official Theme Song 2020: "Carry You Home"

Singer: James Blunt

Climate change is real. With every new crisis happening, we realize that we are pushing us and our planet one step closer to disaster. A disaster of unprecedented scale. We are depleting our natural resources, our wildlife, and forests. 2019 witnessed one of the biggest forest fires in Amazon and Australia. We lost hectares of forests and almost a billion wild animals. The situation is critical and calls for our utmost focus. Together we can reverse climate change only if we act NOW. This is our only home and now is the time to act.

No Time To Waste Feeding everyone in a sustainable way is a global challenge. It also depends on the actions of people like you and I. With nearly 8 billion people on Earth, individual actions add up.

It's April Fools!


Britons have suggested April Fools' Day pranks should be cancelled amid the coronavirus outbreak as they warned people to avoid being 'insensitive'.


April Fools’ Day is a day to be silly and pull friendly jokes and pranks. It’s been around, and is part of the Western culture, for a long time.

Here’s how it works: you do something silly or funny, and then you say, “April Fools!” The point is to laugh and have fun. Having fun being silly but be kind and respectful to everyone else. Always remember that!



"Ouch!"  😭  This is the joke of April Fools' Day 2020.  😂  Due to COVID-19, we may have lost some freedom temporarily, but don't lose our humour.  😜
