The youth is MOVING THE PLANET in Kyiv

About 100 boys and girls participated in the MOVING PLANET flash-dance  with the demand to STOP THE RISE OF CO₂ emissions

24^th of September, Kyiv. The largest ecological flash-dance ever seen in Ukraine just happened at the People's Friendship Arch. About 100 participants – environmentally aware schoolchildren and youth – were dancing  in order to attract attention to the problem of climate change. They demand from the authorities of the country to stop the rise of CO₂ emissions and to implement practical environmental solutions.

Participants of the MOVING PLANET action in Kyiv suggest to make the city more environmentally friendly: to develop infrastructure for cycling, to protect green areas in the city and to plant new trees, separate collection and recycling of all types of waste. We will add new photos and videos, so, monitor our updates.
