>Dear Mr. Mark,
>
>The Kuwait Environment Public Authority (EPA) is pleased to inform you of
>its upcoming celebration of environmental concern, marked all over as the
>Earth Day. ́Earth Day? will be celebrated in a manner that honors the
>environmental passions and meets community challenges on 22nd April between
>9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Municipal Waste Management site in Al-Qurain
>Landfill area, Kuwait. Earth day will promote people's participation in
>caring for the environment and their commitment to ecological sustainable
>development. EPA will associate with various organizations, conduct public
>awareness, create an insight for the significance of natural resource
>conservation, and launch public campaigns. Each institution and organization
>will highlight their own issues through open speeches and talks from invited
>speakers. A special program will be arranged for elementary and secondary
>school children wherein scout boys will be assisted in planting small trees
>around the site area. Children will present various activities, which
>includes drawing, painting, poster exhibition and poetry recitation,
>concerts, recycling efforts, denoting environmental preservation. There also
>will be a massive clean up around the site area, to reconsider human
>relationship to our environment and our commitment to ecological sustainable
>development. Various private sectors, including the Fire Brigade department,
>the Kuwait Municipality and other organizations will participate to
>commemorate the event.

>For your information, I have attached the Earth Day 2000 event registration

>activities in your press releases, and also on your web site. Also, we
