Chinese Environment Chief Greets GLOBE Students
Dear GLOBE School Students,In the vast universe, the earth is the only planet in our knowledge suitable for human survival. But, because of our ignorance, Mother Earth has suffered greatly and is having a difficult time.
I appreciate very much your enthusiasm, courage, and concern for the environment and your participating in environmental protection activities. I believe that what you do will positively influence your parents and all friends around you, and what you achieve will benefit the global effort of pollution control and environmental protection.
Let's join hands and pool our efforts to make Mother Earth forever healthy and beautiful.
Sincerely yours,
Xie Zhenhua Administrator China National Environmental Protection Agency Director China GLOBE Programme Implementation Committee
