We are all aware of the importance of this issue for its consequences on societies and their natural goods. Environment is the concern of humanity and the responsibility of all states and their populations. For this reason, dealing with environment has become today, more than by the past, related to the development policies that guarantee the nations’ continuity . This continuity requires the necessary climate for a safe living by protecting its three components:

water, air and earth and accompanying this with a structuring, a methodology and a reasonable management so as to use these resources and all the others humanly, economically and socially, within a sustainable development view. God have blessed our country with distinguished resources, besides, it has undergone a remarkable progress in the economic and social fields.

But this does not hide the fact that these resources are limited and threatned by pollution and environmental deterioration and its negative consequences on our country’s progress and development.

Protecting environment does not rely only on the states’ policies and the governments’ work but also on the citizens’ awareness, responsible behavior towards nature and its components and their being conscious of the pollution’s evil consequences on the health of our children. As a citizen and a mother, my heart is affected just by thinking that we prevent our children from their rights to live in a country which is in harmony with nature and respects its beauty.

Thus, today that we are celebrating the World Environment Day, I take this opportunity to ask all citizens to be aware of the fragility of things surrounding us and the urgent necessity to protect our cities and rural areas and our natural resources and cultural richness. It is also necessary to educate our children in such a way that they respect their environment and the cleanliness of their physical surroundings and school spaces as well as gardens, forests beaches, as it is recommanded by our religion which impels us to be always clean and to preserve our environment.

So let us be together in this collective march against pollution and contribute in this campaign which mobilizes a large number of local collectivities, associations and social and economic operators, by a simple behavior aiming to “ protect environment”.
