Salam Alaykoum ( peace be upon you)
Nowadays we live the outset of an ecological and worldwide environmental crisis, basically affecting developing countries like Morocco. Respect of nature, sustainable development and environmental protection are the essential measurements to abide by in order to preserve our earth for the coming generations.
Nature has followed sacred cycles of life since the immemorial times, which miraculously has enabled our human race to progress and reach its actual consciousness stage. Unfortunately, in the last century, our modern civilization has partially destroyed those thousands years of evolution and biodiversity.
Actually, Morocco is facing a major ecological emergency; air and water pollution , deforestation , desertification , an alarming water scarcity , horrendous control of trash , threatened biodiversity , soils impoverishment…..
The speed and extent of these deteriorations incite global awareness and implementation of concrete actions. Accordingly; we have to help our country by urging on a strong eco-citizen feeling so as to encourage and push forwards all the efforts and projects are coming in this field.
Besides its geographic location , Morocco is a major geopolitical pivot of Africa and its history makes of it a living symbol of transition , a vector between modern and traditional world as well as between north and south.
This tremendous international aura provides Morocco with all the essential assets to host the first ecological and sustainable development festival in Africa holding as a theme « let’s revisit our planet »
