North Ossetia holds ecological action "oBEREGAy"
Today, North Ossetia has launched an ecological action named "oBEREGAy" (Protect banks and coasts), which is held under the Charitable Programme "Sail of Hope".
The "Caucasian Knot" correspondent has cleared out that the project is a new one for North Ossetia; its idea is to clean the banks and coasts of water bodies, ponds and rivers. The place for the action will be the Koban Gorge, where the works will be performed along the bed of Gizeldon River.
The participants in the project are young men, who are not indifferent to ecological problems of their native territory, representatives of ecological, youth and trade-union organizations, pupils of the sponsored organizations of the North-Ossetian Branch of the OJSC "RusHydro" and employees of the local Hydroelectric Power Plant (HPP).
"Today, people understand better and better that ecological safety and careful attitude to natural resources make the basis of the mankind's life and progress," said Zalina Getoeva. "Therefore it is important to develop the ecology-based outlook and to bring up in people the interest and love to their surrounding nature. The action 'oBEREGAy' is aimed at solution of these problems and at development in young people of careful altitude to reservoirs and coastal territories."
The project "oBEREGAy" is already realized in several regions of Russia, and for the first time this sort of action was held at the Nizhniy Novgorod HPP in 2005. In 2006-2007, similar actions were organized in Stavropol, Dagestan, and Perm and Nizhniy Novgorod Regions - in the vicinity of the HPPs belonging to the OJSC "RusHydro".
