2008: International Year of Planet Earth (IYPE)

The year 2008 has been proclaimed as the IYPE by the United Nation's General Assembly. Despite having a list of virtuous programmes to run throughout the year, there're merely a small number of people who know this. Publicity is lacking. All nations should take the initiative in promoting IYPE, primarily to enhance the understanding of the importance of earth systems.

Winners will receive an invitation to attend the four-day (11-14 Feb 2008) Global Launch Event of the IYPE in Paris. Fully sponsored.

Good enough to motivate me to participate!

Cardiff University Students' Union organised the Freshers Fair 2008 today.
I'm now a member of 4 exciting societies this year!
