`Armenia's Breaking Backbone'
LOS ANGELES - The PAEF (Pan-Armenian Environmental Front) has organized
a movie screening of `Armenia's Breaking Backbone', an environmental
documentary that will be featured at the Ararat Eskijian Museum on
November 17th. The documentary will display Armenia's internal
oligarchy and greed behind the over-exploitation of our nation's
natural resources. Also, viewers will get a close-up of the many
ecological disasters, such as tailing dumps and pollution caused by
excessive mining mostly in the Syunik region, that reduce Armenia's
air quality, serve as a source of emigration and quash any chances of
having an ecologically and economically secure nation. The documentary
aims to reach out to native and diasporan Armenians worldwide,
exhibiting current trends and the consequences of ignorance. Without
persistent environmental activists and a caution light to all
Armenians, we will have to fight an unconquerable war to regain the
health and beauty of our motherland.
PAEF's motto `Protection of our environment is the protection of
Armenia' represents their main goal, which is the preservation of
nature, the sustainable development of economy and the ensuring of
social justice in Armenia. To achieve these goals, the PAEF will
assure rehabilitation and development, reproduction and sustainable
use of natural resources, elimination and prevention of negative
effects of economic and other activities on the environment, and
socially just distribution of natural resources.
Its prominent environmental activists, Yeghia Nersesyan, Anna
Aglamazyan, and Levon Galstyan, gave a lecture at UC Irvine last month
exposing Armenian youth to the dangers our homeland currently faces.
They stressed the importance of more Armenian youth becoming involved
with our homeland's concerns to prevent loss of discourse and work
towards a secure Armenia for Armenians everywhere.
