Best Out Of Waste: Indian Heights School

Ms. Meenal Katre, headteacher of Indian Heights School

The Indian Heights School motivates children to do art work out of waste materials and our new friends really turned trash into the most marvelous art pieces. Thank you Ms. Meenal Katre for showing us new ways in which "waste is not waste" and how beautiful artwork can be created!

ENO Climate Change Campaign 2010: The March Of The Frogs

Kindergarten and grade one students have joined the ENO Climate Change Campaign this year and it was so interesting and successful.
We marched down the street with "Frank the Frog" who was hungry for pledges. We met a lot of people who were so kind to feed "Frank" with pledges of how to save the environment. "Frank", for sure, enjoyed his healthy breakfast and thanked every and each one for being so helpful.

ENO Climate Change Campaign At Beirut Municipality

We'd like to thank Dr. Riyad El Alayli, the head of the environment committee in the municipality for his time to meet with us. The discussion was very fruitful and we were very eager to share our ideas and opinions about climate change and what we are doing to help in stopping it.

ENO Climate Change Campaign 2010

with President Amine Daouk
with the mayor Mr. El- Ariss and Dr. El- Alayli
with Miss Adla Shatila and Dr. Kamel Dallal
We were looking forward for this year's ENO Climate Change Campaign project. The campaign started with a visit to President Amine Daouk, Miss Adla Shatila, and Dr. Kamel Dallal. They previewed our special ENO picture album, signed our pledge and fed "Frank The Frog" with their own pledges. Our next stop was Beirut Municipality. We handed a letter to the mayor Mr. El Ariss with a plea for some changes we would like to see in our city, Beirut. The mayor promised us that our requests will be considered. Dr. El Alayli, the head of the environment committee in the municipality also met us. We were overwhelmed by his warm welcome and generous hospitality. Special thanks goes to Mr. Amine Daouk, Miss Adla Shatila, and Dr. Kamel Dallal for always showing enthusiasm to share in our various projects. Your cooperation is very much appreciated. Gratitude also goes to Mrs. Rola Ajouz for giving us the opportunity to visit the municipality and meet municipality members. A big thank you to the mayor and to Dr. El Alayli.
We would also like to thank Mr. Mika Vanhanen, ENO Director, for your dedication and hard work! You all contributed in making this activity a very successful one! Here is the link to our video on the ENO website.

National Tree Day In Bekaa

Special thank you to Sheikh Khalil El-Mayss, Mufti El- Bekaa, for your gracious hospitality. If those trees could talk, we are sure they would tell you how proud they are to be planted in your yard!
We have received 50 olive trees from the Armed Forces Command. We highly respect and appreciate the sacred gifts. Thank you
Big thank you to Mr Adel Bahlawan, Mr. Jamal Farhat, and to the wonderful school team of Al- Marj School for the warm welcome and hospitality. We very much enjoyed our planting day with you!
with our new friends at Al- Marj School
On National Tree Day, we visited Azhar El- Bekaa and Makassed Al- Marj School and planted the baby olive trees along with our new friends. They all promised us to take care of the trees...and with sunshine and good soil our trees will grow with us and will always tie us back to this beautiful land.

Our Artwork On "THINGSTALK" Website

"A selection of the children’s waste sculptures will be presented to the participants of COP15 as a part of the planned "Children’s Creative ClimateCamp" which will take place in Ballerup and Rødovre from 2-6 December 2009. The children’s waste sculptures and their short climate statements will be regarded as the voices of the children." We have invented artwork out of waste and unused materials and shared our recycling projects on thingtalk website. We very much hope that our voices will be heard around the world.
Special thanks to Miss Hoda Shaaban for her kind assistance.
