10 Inspirational quotes by renowned international environmentalists to motivate you

Needless to say that we all are missing the way we lived a few months back. Carefree and probably taking a crowed public metro to work, shopping at the discounted sale in a mall or just chilling with friends in a bustling bar downtown. As we all try to stay connected through screens and voices on our phones, the world has definitely become a quieter and more sullen place. It’s not just that we can’t even step out without thinking about getting infected but many people lost their jobs, aren’t getting paid properly or just have been cooped up in their homes for so long that everything just feels drab and dull.

Change is fundamental to the growth and we need to look at the brighter side. Here are some quotes that will definitely serve as a mood-boasters for you today –
