It is a while ago and I almost forgot to mention it on my own site. But in April I wrote a blog for VSO UK about Climate change and Poverty. The blog was especially writen for International Mother Earth Day on request of VSO international.
The theme of 2013 was "The Face of Climate Change".
"International Mother Earth Day is a chance to reaffirm our collective responsibility to promote harmony with nature at a time when our planet is under threat from climate change, unsustainable exploitation of natural resources and other man-made problems. When we threaten the planet, we undermine our only home – and our future survival. On this International Day, let us renew our pledges to honour and respect Mother Earth."
