The youth show interest in environment protection

Update: 19/06/2009
An exhibition of graphic works by the youth on issues and resolutions on environment in the future will be held at VietArt Centre - 42 Yet Kieu Str., Hanoi from 20th to 22nd June. The exhibition will display works selected from nearly 400 entries of the contest "A Poster - A Green Planet" focusing on "Waste and Waste Treatment".

Colourful posters show the diversified experiences of the youth towards surrounding environment, by which they want to convey the 'green' message: "Protect our environment by your own way and spread the idea of living environment protection and conservation".

It is forecasted that Vietnam would soone be facing climate change and be one of the nations that could be most affected by climate change. The good signal is that the increasing support and involvement of local communities, particularly the youth, in environment protection movement as well as awareness improvement can be seen recently.
