Azerbaijani International News Agency (AMI) Trend  has held today open lesson on ecology at the secondary school № 225 Baku. The event was held under the project on ecological enlightenment with the financial support of the Fund of State Support for Development of Mass Media under Azerbaijani President.

Before the event the participants received T-shirts and caps  

The project is held within the Year of Ecology in Azerbaijan, and envisages holding  enlightenment works at the secondary schools, Deputy Director of AMI Trend, Project Coordinator Emil Huseynli said in his speech.

"It is time for revolutionary changes in peoples' minds towards the natural environment. Every citizen must feel the responsibility to protect the environment and should contribute in this direction," Huseynli said.

According to him, it will be possible to change peoples' views on the environment by increasing environmental awareness of children at the secondary school in the future. "If someone deliberately harms nature, then very serious accidents can happen. As much people will be indifferent to nature, as the environment will exert its influence," Huseynli said.

Huseynli expressed his gratitude to the Fund of State Support for Development of Mass Media under Azerbaijani President and the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources for their support in implementing the project.

The aim of the open lesson on ecology is deepening students' knowledge in this sphere and the formation of right thinking in this direction, employee of the Department of Ecological Propaganda of the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources Shovkat Bakirov said.

"You are our future, our successors, and now starting to learn the laws and international conventions on the natural environment, you will be able to solve problems in the future," Gambarov said. He also told about ways of solving problems existing both in other countries and in Azerbaijan's regions.

"If level of ecological enlightenment of students is high, we will reach more successful results," Gambarov said.
