Protection of Animals



Another important question related to the environment is the good treatment of the animals in our lives, and the protection of them; or more correctly, extending our kindness and compassion to them.
 


World Environment Day - 5th June 2007

I
n the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate.
All praise be to God, the Sustainer of all the worlds.

As the environment of the Maldives is a precious inheritance of the generations to come, it must be sincerely taken care of. And to protect the land, water, plants and trees, shores, lagoons, reefs and such other places, seas, air, and all those encompassed within these, except those living things that endanger the humans, which comprise the environment of the country. Similarly, it shall be the responsibility of the present generation to create awareness among the generations to come, on improving and maintaining the profitability of these things and places in order to preserve and develop the country. On this auspicious day the Maldives Airports Company will host a website dedicated to the environment and Male’ International Airport will carry out a tree planting program on the World Environment Day.

The planet that we all share is given to us in trust. Every choice we make regarding the earth, air, and water around us should be made with the objective of preserving it for all generations to come. --August A. Bush III

World Environment Day 2007

Melting ice - a hot topic?
Norway is honoured to host the international World Environment Day 2007 celebrations in recognition of the hot topic of melting ice. More than a hundred nations are celebrating this day, and the theme is highly relevant.

The Mend of the World is Near
 
"Climate change" is the theme for World Environment Day on June 5.
For 2007 we'll be challenging everyone to Ask yourself...

  • What's the number one thing you are doing to help tackle climate change?

  • What one extra thing could you do to help tackle climate change?

  • What's stopping you?
