LAHORE, June 5: Celebrating World Environment Day enables children not only to realize their individual responsibility towards environment protection, but also their power to become agents for change in support of ecologically sustainable and socially just development.

This was stated by Centre for Culture and Development (C2D) executive director Izzah Khan while speaking to students of different schools who were engaged to participate in “Grow More Trees” campaign in connection with the World Environment Day. She said the campaign would help promote a personal interest in the environment by encouraging students to plant trees and take care of them.
