The closing ceremony of the Republican Gathering of Young Naturalists, which is held in support of the national project "Ecological well-being", took place today. Three days at the Baytik camp were filled with smiles, creativity and, of course, joint environmental projects.
During this time, the students came up with and presented many interesting works: about the ecotrope in the Pechishchi village area, studying the characteristics of zooplankton in Kazan's water bodies, and many others. In addition to the educational part, the youngsters immersed themselves in the atmosphere of creativity, showing bright vocal and dance performances on stage. The guys also went on a guided tour of the Blue Lakes.
Today, Ilnur Nasretdinov, Deputy Minister of Ecology of the Republic of Tatarstan, welcomed the participants of the rally.
"Today, real conservationists have gathered here. It is gratifying that you are concerned about such important things as taking care of your native republic. I am very pleased that such topics as the introduction and popularization of separate waste collection, the education of ecological culture and the development of public spaces are reflected in your hearts. With your works, you once again prove and show that the main thing is a reverent attitude towards the world around you. Wherever you are, don't forget the place where you grew up, implemented your ideas and created your first projects – our native Tatarstan," Ilnur Nasretdinov said.
The award ceremony noted not only those who showed good results during the three-day rally, but also activists who participated in good deeds for the benefit of nature throughout the year: they held clean-up days, planted trees, helped birds, collected waste paper and batteries.
