Environment supporters have cleaned up water bodies on the World Water Day

The fourth event of the Euro-2012 Environment Supporter national environmental project was held in Lviv, Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Kyiv on March 24. This time, volunteers and all the people concerned with environmental situation of our country cleaned up the shorelines of water bodies in the cities that will host the championship in summer of 2012. The event was timed to coincide with the World Water Day that is celebrated annually on March 22. This community work day-like event aimed to draw the Ukrainians’ attention to the need for prudent use of water resources and show that everyone can contribute to keeping the city clean spending just a few hours on it. Kyiv environment supporters cleaned up the lake shore in the Nyvky Park (pictured). Four tons of garbage was removed from the four cities’ water bodies during the event.
