On the 27th September we
invited everybody from all around the world to plant trees and
participate in helping the environment. By doing so, you will help
save our planet Earth by doing your bit in transforming it to become
greener.
Come and bring out your ‘environmental side’ and help reduce the
offset CO2 emissions and provide habitats for wildlife.
Show compassion to animals, let us learn how to forgive each other
and move forward with a renewed heart, friendship and inspiration.
Please send your photos and videos to admin@centreforconsciousawareness.org,
so that we can upload for others to become aware and inspired of
what you have done to help.
