Today is World Environment Day. Let's make it Historic.



TODAY, It’s JUNE 5, 2010, WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY Let's make it Historic!


The United Nations decided in 1972 that this date be marked yearly for this commemoration, and we greet one and all as we mount our concern and hold actual activities for the conservation of the Environment that would still be suitable for sustaining Human Life, excluding the wasteful and environment-destructive lifestyles human societies have developed over the past decades.

.

. Today, World Environment Day-Philippines (WED-Phils.) Network, led by chairmen-emeritus Edward S. Hagedorn (reelected mayor of Puerto Princesa City) and Ed Aurelio C. Reyes (concurrent secretary-general), together with network chairmen Mayor Eduardo Dimacuha and Oliver Gonzales of Batangas City, asks Filipinos throughout our archipelago and outside it, along with all our siblings in Humankind throughout our planet, to join the multi-language chorus of individual people, families and communities committning to mount an active defense for out Environment, active defense for the life, dignity and wisdom of Humankind ad of Nature.

.

. For this, we are presenting a “New Seed” declaration in more than a dozen languages you can all choose from for this day’s chorused recitation in your own respective small and big groups and gatherings. These are five Philippine languages (Filipino/Tagalog, Pampango, Cebuano, Pangasinan and Cuyonin) and nine languages of other countries (English, French, German, Spanish, Swahili, Chinese, Korean, Hindi and Portuguese), and more translations are being worked on now. Please open http://newseed.8m.net and navigate to the translations, or go directly to the menu of links to the translations by clicking here: http://newseed.8m.net/contents-specific.htm. Just in case you and or your group decides to translate to your own language, please send your translation {and info on the translator) to wedphils@yahoo.com (as embedded text or attached image file).
