Day of the White Rose, Australia - 31 August

The White Rose Day is an Australian holiday in honor of Princess Diana, who was killed in a car accident on that date in 1997. 

Princess Diana of Wales was a good person who worked with international charities and was one of the most popular public figures in Britain and around the world. The road accident in which she was killed along with her partner, Dudu Fayed, happened in a tunnel on Pont de l'Alma in Paris. After her death he was but all over the world. To this day, near the tunnel where she died, there are lots of wreaths, statues, stuffed animals and other accessories that people left to honor her memory. 

So ... Diana was England, the Princess of Wales, and she died in France. Why is her death perpetuated white roses in Australia? This is because Australia is part of the Commonwealth of Nations. This means that although Australia is a separate and independent country from Britain, the British monarchy also governs it. In other words, Queen Elizabeth II is not only Queen of England but also Queen of Australia. Therefore, Princess Diana was in terms of the Australian Princess of Australia. There are 16 countries belonging to the Commonwealth: Australia, Canada, Jamaica, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Antigua and Barbuda, Belize, Barbados, Grenada, United Kingdom, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Saint Lucia, Tuvalu, Saint Keats and Nevis and the Bahamas). 

Princess Diana symbolized not only the royal house but also was a fashion icon and model of admiration and imitation. She was married to Prince Charles for 15 years (hence the nickname "Princess," although she was not really a princess) and mother to the two heirs, William and Harry. Her nickname was Lady Dee. In 1996 Diana and Charles divorced, and after a while she began a relationship with my uncle Al Fayed, an Egyptian millionaire businessman who was killed in an accident with her.

Bikini Day- 5 July

Bikini Day is the bikini's birthday invented on July 5, 1946 by Louis Réard, who was actually a car engineer. He offered the bikini to his mother who had a clothing company and gave the bathing suit the name Bikini for the island where atomic experiments were being held, because he claimed the swimsuit he invented would generate "atomic" enthusiasm.

Louis Réard - the creator of the bikini

As part of this day's celebration, go to the nearest beach or take a good deal for a vacation where there is a sea or pool, spend the day with your bikini and if you don't like to wear a bikini, at least wash your eyes with the one who is wearing it!

A day without plastic bags- 3 July

Most of us use them every day, in plastic bags, without thinking about it. We take one or more almost every store we buy. Whether we buy groceries or new shoes, we do not leave the shop without taking a plastic bag full of the good new things we bought. Then, when we get home, we take what we bought from the bag, throw it away and forget it.
Stop! Have you ever thought about what happens to these bags after we finish using them?

The international day without plastic bags is dedicated to increasing awareness of the damage that plastic bags cause to the environment. We do get rid of them after half an hour and they disappear from our thought, but they do not disappear from the world. The plastic bags will remain in the world for another 100-500 years until they finally disintegrate completely and have a profound impact on our environment as a result.

The bags reach the garbage and fly from there to wherever possible. They reach the ground and injure animals that choke on them. They reach the sea and the ocean and kill the fish. They accumulate into large piles and create rubbish, they fill streams and water sources.

On a day without plastic bags, give up plastic bags for at least one day. Use multi-cloth baskets in a large bag or in carts. When you go shopping in the mall, come with a big bag and put things you buy there. It is also much more convenient than carrying bags! Use biodegradable bags and if you own a store, offer your customers recycled paper bags.

Techis Day- 3 October

Today is the day of recognition for all the people who work and are working on the high-tech technology that leads the world to progress and turn it into a global village where everyone can communicate with everyone, no matter how far apart, and everyone can know everything about everyone.

This day was founded in 1999 by the Techis.com website with the support of the CNET network, who wanted to express their appreciation to all students and employees in the high-tech and hi-tech fields and to encourage high school students to choose technology studies. Things that were once so difficult and slow, like sending messages to each other, or taking pictures, or watching movies and reading books, are fast and easy today thanks to high tech.

Hi-tech also supports the army, both in terms of weapons and defense and intelligence.

Some people envy high-tech people who have high salaries and good conditions, and seemingly they only sit all day in the office and do not make an effort, but people who work in high-tech need to mobilize all their thinking and concentration, and work hard for hours to achieve results that allow us easy and comfortable lives More.

To celebrate High Tech Day, you can simply send an e-mail thanks and appreciation to someone who deals with high-tech, and remind him that without people like him, the world would go back to the days of letters that were lost in the mail, the days of paper maps you had to read yourself Send to the store development and takes a few days to develop, later without internet and more ...

Respect Day- 18 September

Respect Day falls on September 18 each year and is created to encourage people to respect others.
This day is meant to emphasize the importance of being more attentive and polite to other people so that we can live here in a more pleasant society.
There is no way to celebrate this day, just to try to think whether our behavior respects the other and the rules of society, because when we respect others, we also respect ourselves.
Of course it is an important honor to give not only once a year but every day, but this day is special to stop and criticize ourselves. Usually we demand that others treat us with respect and anger or are insulted when they do not do it, so it is time to think about whether we are doing this.
