See the Bigger Picture
Biodiversity through the eyes of children and youth
Being an educational programme on biodiversity for children and youth, The Green Wave offers families, children and youth a way to join the International Year of Biodiversity celebrations and to work together to safeguard life on Earth.
As a way to increase public understanding of the vital role that biodiversity plays in sustaining life on Earth and to highlight the role that children and youth, citizens, communities and countries have in the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity, The Green Wave, Airbus and National Geographic launched a children’s international biodiversity photo competition in June 2009. The contest, named “See the Bigger Picture”, encouraged young people to engage in nature and consider the global loss of biodiversity. Managed by National Geographic, the competition drew more than 2,500 entries from budding photographers in 99 countries.
On December 4th 2009, eight winning photos were chosen from entries from children in countries across the world who took inspiration from surrounding nature for their unique shots. A further 20 young people received honourable mention for their impressive entries. To view the winning entries honourable mentions, visit www.seethebiggerpicture.org

366 gestes pour la biodiversité
(Belgique - in French and Dutch only)
Vous aimez observer les plantes dans la rue et vous promener dans la nature (en restant sur les sentiers bien sûr!) ? Vous mangez de préférence des fruits et légumes de saison? En hiver, vous nourrissez les oiseaux tous les jours? Après les fêtes, vous recyclez votre sapin de Noël et les bouchons de liège des bouteilles?
Sans le savoir, vous faites déjà beaucoup pour la biodiversité. Des gestes quotidiens souvent très simples comme ceux-là suffisent à protéger les richesses de la nature.
Et des gestes, il y en a beaucoup… au moins un par jour! |
