World Ozone Day is observed annually on 16 September to raise awareness about the importance of the ozone layer and the need to protect it. The day commemorates the signing of the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer on 16 September 1987.

The ozone layer acts as a protective shield around Earth by absorbing much of the Sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation. World Ozone Day provides an opportunity to educate students and communities about ozone protection, responsible environmental practices and global cooperation.

Suicide is a deeply complex and personal issue, and it’s important to remember that not everyone who has a mental health condition or experiences risk factors contemplates or plans suicide. Nevertheless, it is vital to know the warning signs that someone might be at immediate risk for a suicide attempt. ▪️Talking about wanting to die or wanting to kill oneself ▪️Talking about feeling empty, hopeless, or having no reason to live ▪️Talking about feeling trapped or that one has no solutions ▪️Feeling unbeara...
