Johanny, that's awesome about your lunch! I hope it was highly productive. I would LOVE to contribute to your local publication-is there any topic you think it would be good for me to address? How long should my article be? I don't mean to bombard you with questions, I just want to draft an article worthy of such high caliber students as yourselves!

World Environment Day

Hi Clarke and friends!!!

First of all, lets talk about the world Environment Day which was in June 5th. Worldwide that day was celebrated with different activities. At EARTH University me and two more friends: Angela Ospina and Jorge Cespedes planned a really nice lunch. We showed some slides about the Carbon neutrality project of the University and the Blue Flag Programme in good treatment of water here; also, there was a special dessert.

It is great to know that the leaders of your Campus Conservation Corps are planning to help with blog management. I had not heard before about the organisation WWOOF but I know some friends that could be very related with the topic. Anyway it sounds interesting and right now I will check the web site of the organisation.

I wanted to tell you that during this trimester I am the Current director of the Student Magazine, which presents critical articles about social issues like: food crisis, biofuels, World environment politics, etc. made by students and some times we have invited professors or People from other Countries or Universities. I send you the invitation if you want to present any article we would be very happy to receive it. The deadline is until Friday June 13th. Please confirm me at: jperez(at)earth.ac.cr.

Well, keep in touch,

Johanny PĂ©rez
