Environment Protection

"All the people of a country have a direct interest in conservation... Wildlife, water, forests, grasslands -- all are a part of man's essential environment; the conservation and effective use of one is impossible except as the others are also conserved."

~Rachel Carson~

World Environment Day (WED) was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 1972. WED is hosted every year by a different city and commemorated with an international exposition through the week of June 5th. The U.N. uses WED to stimulate awareness of the environment and enhance political attention and public action. See http://www.wed2005.org/0.0.php for more information.

This display will give you more information about environmental protection.
