On this day, the governments around the globe spread awareness about consumers’ rights and needs. In 1962, President John F Kennedy sent a significant message to the US Congress on March 15th, formally addressing the issue of consumer rights, and becoming the first global leader to do so. This inspired the establishment of World Consumer Rights Day, which was first observed by the consumer movement in 1983. The theme of World Consumer Rights Day 2023 is “Empowering consumers through clean energy transitions”. This year’s theme for World Consumer Rights Day aims to empower consumers to choose low-carbon or less harmful energy sources, or any other services that cause less harm to our climate, thereby enabling us to shift from dirty energy to clean energy transitions. In our day to day lives, we use many energy services that are powered by harmful energy sources which are unsuitable for our climate, such as coal-powered electricity, air travel, and private vehicles. These emit high amounts of carbon dioxide into our atmosphere. People can catalyze significant changes by adopting low-carbon alternatives, such as choosing trains over flights or public transport over private vehicles, as well as upgrading existing systems, such as installing heat pumps or buying electric cars. Teaching, Non-Teaching, students and others actively participated in the quiz.
