A great tragedy has hit the world of environmentalism. The Ethiopian Airlines aircraft crashed yesterday after take-off near Addis Ababa, caused the death of 157 people who were on board, including passengers and crew members.
From the young Swedish student Greta Thunberg, the successful example of how the message on the urgency of change can reach hearts and consciences. She deserves all our applause and support. From his courageous gesture a movement is born that mobilizes groups of young people all over the world. The events of “Fridays for future” and the global strike of March 15th are a sign of hope that must leave its mark. This is why the WEEC Secretariat invites all the people involved in the defense of the environment and all the members of the largest international network of environmental educators to join, to be in the front line and to give maximum support to the campaign for the respect for commitments against global warming. «Greta» said among other things the WEEC Secretary General Mario Salomone «spoke also to the great people of the Earth, COP24 and the WEF of Davos. They heard her, but it is not said that they listened to her. It is up to all of us to help extinguish the burning house fire. Women and men of every generation side by side».
