"Earth Time"

We make ecology popular!
Briefly about us:
Mission
We help local communities and initiatives of the Brest region to solve environmental problems through the implementation of the concept "Brest - City Park", monitoring violations of environmental legislation, public campaigns, projects and other events.
Who We Are
Active citizens of the Brest region united by one common idea: the protection and improvement of the environment and the natural reserve of Belarus.
What We Are Doing
Our activities are aimed at popularizing the "green" movement, preserving the development of the greenery in urban areas, and solving environmental problems.
We work to preserve and create a favorable environment by engaging the general public in informal education in human rights, to help develop civic activity in the cities and towns of the Brest region.
We are conducting a public campaign to lobby the government into addressing the problems faced by local communities, through involvement of citizens and who are prepared to seek independent solutions by soliciting help from voluntary and charitable organizations.
