Dear Friends,

Happy new year! we are looking forward to seeing everyone again. Sorry about the comment before i dont think it got through properly!
We would like to know if anyone is doing a project on biodiversity within their culture. We are basing our project on the Scottish National Culture so maybe we could share ideas.
We hope to here from you soon.

Hello, Suryo.
We are glad to have partners on our project. In our city we find the information and do the job in the park near our school and the park which is on the other bank of the river near the city and we want to see how often people visit them, what for, how parks influence on people , their health and culture. And in your country we 'd be glad to see different parks and what they do to prevent them from destroying. And sure may be cultural events and traditions which take place in the parks. Thank you.

Dear friends,

we are living in Silesian Uplands, region of Poland with the highest factors of urbanization and industrialization, which have essential influence on local ecosystem. We are working on project touching the conservation of the green zones in our region and revitalization of postindustrial areas. I guess that similar themes are the objects of discussions for people from Surabaya region. So, we are looking for a team/school from Surabaya region, which is ready to share experiences on these subjects with us.
Some teams from other localization are also cordially invited for cooperation.
Best regards to Stien and Suryo, I am looking to see you soon in Malang.

We are doing a project on youth-to-youth communication within our national teen culture. Is anyone working on something similar or does anyone have any thoughts regarding this subject?

Hello All,

This will be my third conference that i have attended. I am excited to be traveling to a new, wonderous place again this year.
Some of my fellow students and I have been working on a Natural Forest Restoration on our own school campus for the past three years. This process includes desposing of invasive species and the planting of native species.
If you have a similar project, I would be happy to hear from anyone. My Email address is post at the bottom and you may email me at any time.
Hope to see you all in Indonesia!

Authorities should encourage people to return to carrying cloth bags and using baskets. Worldwatch Institute, an environmental research group estimates consumers worldwide toss about 500 billion plastic bags annually, which dissolve over 1,000 years. Canada, Ireland, South Africa, and Taiwan have placed additional fees and taxes on the bags to discourage use.
Leaf Rapids, Manitoba, Canada became the first municipality to prohibit plastic bags. San Francisco became the first North American city to ban non-recyclable plastic bags made from petroleum products, Mar.’07.
