Even local efforts matter globally!

In yet another United Nations Environment Programme(UNEP) partnered events which reach out to local communities the Billion Tree Campaign this year has attracted tree planting pledges from regions all over the world.The annual "clean up the world weekend" organised last month inspired 35 million volunteers to fix and conserve their local environment. Sydney based Ian Kiernan has an active role to play when he pledged to clean up Sydney Harbour after a yacht race left him appalled by the amount of rubbish choking the world's oceans.
Awareness without action is out.Volunteering is in! And it's never too late to get started!!
So let each one of us begin with the thought that even I can make a difference and get rolling.
