Wastes: Sources of health by Mrs. Leila BRARI
An international event, which is celebrated across the world, aims to
sensitize the international community to the endangerment of our planet Earth.
Global warming, greenhouse effect, rising water levels, melting glaciers
of both North and South poles, increased deforestation, destruction of
biodiversity and extinction of several animal and plant species,
desertification are the direct consequences of the overexploitation and
overconsumption of land resources by mankind (water, wood, energy, agricultural
products, etc.).
The report is overwhelming since the degradation can be irreversible and
with disastrous consequences. Scientists speak today of anthropization, that is
to say the transformation of spaces, landscapes, ecosystems or natural environments
under the action of men.
Free admission is inclusive to lectures and plays
