Al Vinyes Velles commemorem el Dia Mundial de la Natura o de la Vida Silvestre
Alumnes de 3r d'ESO a les classes de la matèria d'Educació Visual i Plàstica de l'Ins Vinyes Velles han realitzat aquestes figures que durant unes setmanes són exposades al vestíbul per commemorar el Dia Mundial de la Natura o de la Vida Silvestre -World Wildlife Day-, proclamat per la ONU el dia 20 desembre de 2013 i que se celebra cada dia 3 de març.
"Aquesta efemèride ambiental va ser proclamada per resolució de l'Assemblea General de les Nacions Unides el 20 de desembre de 2013 [...]. La data escollida, 3 de març, marca l'aniversari de l'aprovació el 1973 de la CITIES, la qual regula el comerç internacional de més de 35.000 espècies de plantes i animals, incloent-hi els seus productes i derivats, cosa que garanteix la seva supervivència en el medi natural amb els beneficis que comporta per a les poblacions locals i el medi ambient mundial."

"2017 Theme: "Listen to the young voices"
World
Wildlife Day is an opportunity to celebrate the many beautiful
and varied forms of wild fauna and flora and to raise awareness of the
multitude of benefits that conservation provides to people. At the same time,
the Day reminds us of the urgent need to step up the fight against wildlife
crime, which has wide-ranging economic, environmental and social impacts.
Wildlife has an intrinsic value and contributes to the ecological, genetic,
social, economic, scientific, educational, cultural, recreational and aesthetic
aspects of sustainable development and human well-being. For these reasons, all
member States, the United Nations system and other international organizations,
as well as civil society, non-governmental organizations and individuals, are
invited to observe and to get involved in this global celebration of wildlife.
Local communities can play a positive role in helping to curb illegal wildlife
trade.
«Listening to the young voices»
Engaging and empowering the youth is the call of the 2017 UN World Wildlife Day. WWD2017 gives us a new opportunity to provide incentives to the youth to tackle conservation issues. It is also an opportunity for them to engage with one another and together forge an inspired path to a better world.

Habitat loss, climate change and poaching are among the most alarming
challenges faced by wildlife today. Poaching and trafficking of wildlife is now
the most immediate threat to many species, whether charismatic or less
known. The fate of the world’s wildlife will soon be in the hands of the
next generation. The pressing need for enhanced action to ensure the
survival of wildlife in its natural habitats must be imparted from generation
to generation, and the youth should have the opportunity to communicate the
conservation goals to a wider society.
The secretariat of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), in collaboration with other relevant United Nations organizations, facilitates the implementation of World Wildlife Day.
