MUTHA  CLEAN-UP GETS GLOBAL PUSH -Intl. WeLoveU foundation
(국제위러브유 운동 본부)


"Save The Earth Before Too Late"


Today's environment issues are getting worse and worse, that signify the earth is suffering. After all , which causes lots of natural disasters. Then, How should we cope with all the natural disasters threatening our lives? The Intl. WeLoveU Foundation-국제 위러브유 운동본부 ( Chairwoman : Zahng Gil-jah -회장 장길자)  is trying to raise public awareness of these environmental problems and solve them actively in many ways. The mature civic awareness is needed for the earth to keep  on  breathing.

On Sunday morning, an army in white T-shirts and yellow gloves assembled at the Mutha river to carry out the 2012 Clean World Movement.
From the Kalyani Nagar bridge, one could see the group hard at work.
Organised by the Korea-based  WeLoveU Foundation (IWF),  river cleaning activity was carried out simultaneously across the world. Right from Mutha in Pune to El Paso in USA, Bellecour Square in Lyon, France, Magat Salamat in Phillippines and Hara River in Darkhan — the initiative was a synchronous step towards a cleaner environment.

The event was also part of an agreement signed at the 2012 Seoul Nuclear Security Summit. In mid-March this year, Zahng Gil-jah (회장 장길자) chairperson of the  Intl. WeLoveU Foundation and Ali-Ben Bongo Ondimba, president, Gabon, agreed to cooperate with each other to cope with environmental problems.

In Pune, 400 people from all walks of life went about town collecting garbage. Colin Fernandes, a 21-year-old student who has been volunteering with the organisation for a year now, felt this was a great way to create "awareness". “It’s like a world movement.  WeLoveU Foundation,  expands worldwide starting from the Representative of Korea. The clean up activities will be organised concurrently to send a stronger message.”

From 10 am to noon, spreading in various time zones, garbage was collected and the issue discussed. Several black dustbin bags stuffed with cigarette butts, plastic bottles and paper waste sat around.

On the side, volunteers emptied the bags to form a big mass of garbage that Pune had effortlessly discarded into Mutha.
Raghav Shelke, a volunteer said, “One is surprised by the kind of garbage dumped here. There are toothpaste caps, pen refills, used cans, 
a pair of jeans, a torn leather shoe and several other things here.”

The black bin bags stuffed with non-degradable waste signified how much the citizens take the river for granted.

    As this says,becoming aware of problem!! This is the 1st step.
    However, the 2nd step is difficult to take.

  7. There are so many natural disasters in the world. But we don't know how can stop the natural disaster. I think that change our thinking against environmental issues.
    It is important to practice our mind with something small.
    So i applaud to Intl. WeLoveU Foundation.
