Through this street action we want to underline the importance of volunteering for this topic. We aim to use all our creativity and entrepreneurship, in order to find solutions of protecting the environment. This experience will contribute to the personal development of the youngsters, as they will all participate with their ideas in preparing and realising the “Go For Green.In our opinion, this project will improve the environmental respect. By the youngsters active participation in the project “Go For Green” we expect awareness of the global reality.
