It would seem that "Alone in the field is not a warrior," but in the matter of preserving the environment, the personal decision of each of us can help the environment. All great things begin with a small step, and only by personal participation and example we can preserve and improve the world around us. The Russian schoolchildren movement launched the All-Russian Environmental Competition “Eco-team at the start!”. To participate, it is necessary to create an environmental team in a school, eco-center or children's association and, together with the team curator, send a request to e-mail eco-otryad@rdcentr.ru before March 1, 2019.
