Roots & Shoots.. An Environmental Global Mission
Posted by msterilinn on Jan 4, 2008
Shall we devote a few minutes of our precious time to a mission both noble and humanitarian? Seeing as this is a program instituted through the Jane Goodall Institute, we all know it brings great value to the Environment and natural causes. I am proud to bring about awareness of a program called Roots & Shoots.
What is Roots & Shoots? The Roots & Shoots program is about making positive change happen—for our communities, for animals and for the environment. With tens of thousands of young people in almost 100 countries, the Roots & Shoots network branches out across the globe, connecting youth of all ages who share a common desire to help make our world a better place.
What is the Mission of Roots & Shoots?
*To foster respect and compassion for all living things, to promote understanding of all cultures and beliefs and to inspire each individual to take action to make the world a better place for people, animals and the environment.
What are the Goals of Roots & Shoots?
*To implement positive change through active learning about, caring for and interacting with the environment.
*To demonstrate care and concern for all animals.
*To enhance understanding among individuals of different cultures, ethnic groups, religions, socio-economic levels and nations through our global communications network.
*To help young people develop self-respect, confidence in themselves and hope for the future.
