Green Love For Future 2020 – Light your monuments in green for the earth (UNSDG18A)

 

History of “Green Love For Future”

Launched in Ventimiglia (Italy) in November 2019 and worldly announced in Monaco in December 2019, as part of the IMEDD’s DDAY FOR THE EARTH for the United Nations, during COP25 in Madrid and the NATO reception at Buckingham Palace in London, “Green Love for Future” is a global initiative led in the framework of the United Nations, to empower the countries to light their national monuments in green to show their commitments for a better environmental preservation, sustainable development and their will to be a Smart Nation.

The tradition of the empowering event “Green Love for Future” is that Ventimiglia is always the first to light its medieval city in green, followed by Monaco and the United Kingdom. Then, other countries join the green show for the earth and light their monuments in green.

Below are the photos of the 2019 edition of “Green Love for Future”

Goal of the UNSDG18-A: “Green Love For Future”

The initiative “Green Love for Future” is the UNSDG18-A, the first launched during the D-Day for the earth in 2019, following the goals to empower the countries to act as Smart Nations, implementing a sustainable development based on a fair economy, a social well-being and an environmental preservation of their territories, in order to create a better world for the future generations.

The UNSDG18-A proposes the date of December 4 so the countries can light their national monuments in green, the reality being that the green light show starts in the second part of November in Ventimiglia and ends on December 18, the goal being to give time to the countries to organize the lighting of their monuments.

This moment of the year finally follows the goal to recall to each country the D-Day for the Earth led in Monaco in 2019, recall the global commitments to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and thank the World Environmental Community for its commitments to federate worldwide to take force and create a better future.

The poster 2020 of “Green Love For Future”

“Green Love For Future” is a global advocacy initiative for the countries to show their commitments to the environmental preservation.
Nothing is better than demonstrating our love for the magic of the environment than showing the natural elements, which is the goal of the poster 2020 of the UNSDG18-A: Green Love For Future.

This poster shows:

  • the green lights with a magnificient aurora borealis,
  • the ice which recalls the melting ice and the fight against climate change,
  • the blue for the preservation of the seas and oceans,
  • the polar bear which represents the biodiversity’s protection,
  • the stars in the sky which show the light which leads to the path of the environmental preservation.

How can the countries participate in “Green Love for future”?

Nothing is more simple. The countries willing to participate in “Green Love For Future” need to light one of their national monument in green between November 21 and December 18, 2020, publish the photo on their social media, tag the IMEDD on Facebook at @IMEDDResarch and use the hashtag #greenloveforfuture, still on Facebook.
