Our school year has started in a very special way. We have participated in the ENO Tree Planting day and joined more than 2500 schools in 122 countries. This event is a practical way of enhancing environmental and global education. It connects children
all over the world to focus on environmental issues. What is more, the event fosters peace
education and increases the awareness of school children of the importance of forests on a global scale. The planting of trees took place everywhere at noon local time. The first to start was Tonga in Oceania and as the Sun and Earth continued to turn, Asia, Africa and Europe joined in as well. Some time later the continents of North and South America grabbed the hoe, and last area to participate was Samoa Islands. The world has taken a remarkable step towards a more ecological way of life.
We would like to thank Mr. Mika Vanhanen, the coordinator of ENO-Environment Online in Joensuu Finland, for his extra ordinary effort to make this event a successful one...
