Restoring community and environment in northern Ukraine
In northern Ukraine, communities are working to rebuild their social fabric and restore the environment in the wake of conflict, with support from the European Endowment for Democracy. One key player in this effort is Eco Misto Chernihiv, a local NGO actively involved in revitalizing public spaces and promoting environmental awareness. Through grassroots initiatives, including cleanup efforts, community gardening, and sustainable urban planning, Eco Misto contributes to both immediate recovery and long-term resilience. These efforts underscore the importance of local leadership and civic engagement in Ukraine’s broader post-war reconstruction and environmental recovery.

The compositional placement of the elements represent my intended aspect of me because I placed myself on, in between, and surrounded by bails of hay. The bails of hay represent a large part of my child hood and still do till to this day.
The expression of my face represent my intended aspect because I am very happy that I grew up in the country. Im thankful for all the things that it has taught me. Im glad to be around the horses and my family. I glad I can show my son and raise him around the things that my parents raised me around.
The background components, which are bails of hay located in the hay mow, represent my individual aspect because these bails are started from square one. In the fields I bailed the hay with my family and grandpa, we stacked them in the mow, and we feed them to our horses. When we go camping these bails come with. Even though it takes a lot of work to get these bails of hay. It makes me happy to know the memories that are behind them.
The lighting represent my individual aspect because it is natural light. The light is coming in from the mow door. It is front lite with a little from the side. I like how my whole body has the sun shinning on it just as if I were outside. It has a higher and soft intensity which I like because living in the country is peaceful yet, it can be intense and hard work.
Overall this image to me represent so many things, memories, camping, bailing hay, riding the tractor with my grandpa, playing outside, horse back riding, and riding four wheelers. Know I might not have as much time to do them things daily since I don't live there but any chance I have I take Brodey, my son out there because it already seems to be his favorite place to play.

Philadelphia
Development in Philly is out of control, worsening conditions for working class people & the environment. Hundreds of community activists took to the streets to set the tone for Philly's 2023 election: anyone running for mayor or city council better have policy solutions for ensuring long-term, working class residents have a place in this city and that Philly is truly tackling and prepared for the climate crisis.
The march was organized by community groups fighting for land justice across our city, including Philly Thrive, Sunrise Movement, VietLead, Save UCTownhomes, Save the Meadows, Cobbs Creek EJ, and more!
World Environment Day was celebrated with a lot of enthusiasm and zeal at Indian School Darsait on 5th June 2022. The children of KG II B presented the Environment Day assembly with the message ‘Go Green’. The programme began with the presentation of a potted plant.
Our principal was immensely happy and responded that he loved this gesture shown by our students today. The Vice Principal in her address mentioned about the importance of saving the environment for a better future
All the aspects that predominantly cater to save the environment campaign were showcased in the assembly. Under the guidance of our Coordinator and class teacher, the theme ‘Only one earth ‘was highlighted with clear dialogues, mesmerizing dances, and a melodious group song, ’The earth is our home’
The children were expressing their views and ideas clearly by skits and through a spellbinding mime. They drove home the importance of saving earth and the duties that we are bound to do towards keeping the earth a safe and healthy place to live in. They also portrayed the tremendous ill treatment that we are unknowingly causing to mar the aesthetic blessing that we have. They had the audience enthralled with their witty lines and actions.
Children of KG I had a colouring activity and KG II had an Environment day collage making activity. The entire school was a green zone with everyone dressed in green clothes and showing their solidarity with the theme of Go green.

Visitors look at a blooming Titan Arum (Amorphophallus titanum), one of the world's largest and rare tropical flowering plants, at Basel's Botanical Garden September 29, 2014. The flower, which emits strong odour likened to rotting meat, which gives it it's common name 'corpse flower', wilts and dies after two days. Both the 'fragance' and the flower's meat-colouration attract pollinators - carrion flies and beetles. REUTERS/Arnd Wiegmann (SWITZERLAND - Tags: ENVIRONMENT SOCIETY) - RTR486SE
