| | | PRACTICE - EDUCATION - SCIENCE [KJW #079] WEL, World Elder Land, has teamed up with the United Nations Environmental Program to present World Environment Month - June 007 United Nations Environmental Program and Better World Community Adventures, a project of WEL, World Elder Land presents This year we hope to continue inspiring as many elder communities as possible to actively participate in the betterment of our environment. The world would love to learn the opinion and suggestions of our elders in matters of a better environment for better health, global warming and preservation of natural resources. This is a people's event and a community service project that promotes better ways toward environmental issues, whole-person living, to ensure that all living beings; people and nature, enjoy a safer better present and future life. WEL is inviting all elders of the world and their caregivers to create an inspirational postcard describing a project or way to better the environment. English: What can I do to better the environment?
Spanish: Qué puedes hacer tú para mejorar el ambiente y la naturaleza? (Example of a post card acknowledging nature as our extended body.) Suggestions: 1. Please use biodegradable or environmental green products to create your post-card. (Biodegradable: waste material that can be decomposed under natural conditions.) 2. This can be an intergenerational event or a community event. Send us photos of your projects in progress or interviews with elders at: wel@worldelderland.com To register your project with elders and caregivers, please send us an e-mail to wel@worldelderland.com WEL have received registrations from: Tanzania, Venezuela, Spain, USA (Maryland, Florida, New York, Washington D.C. and Washington.) and we will be facilitating some of these events. * * * * * We are here to help you!
