Today our environment and wildlife are in danger. Every day the situation becomes worse and
worse.
Our project is devoted to organizations that
deal with protection of our planet. Before
speaking about environmental problems
we would like to show the results of our
survey. We asked our schoolmates 4
questions about ecological problems.
2) Do you know any organizations that focus on environment protection in Russia
- Greenpeace
- Green street of Smolensk
- City student council
- Volunteer organizations
In our country there are some organizations that protect our environment. A Greenpeace office in our country was
established in 1989 and since 1992 we call ourselves/were given a name of Greenpeace Russia. In 2001 our branch was opened in Saint Petersburg.
Greenpeace Russia has 5 thousand supporters who share their values and donate to their work. The activists use their skills and experience to participate in the campaigns.
Together we can save our planet for future generations!
They work in the following fields: forests’ protection; protection of world heritage; protection from the threat of new
Chernobyl type accidents and prevent Russia from becoming an international radioactive dump;
protection of Lake Baikal; Protection of people from GE food
products
