Fourteen churches launched a campaign on World Environment Day on Friday to protect the environment in Kachin State. Tang Goon, a director of the Kachin Baptist Convention youth department, which is based on the Burma-China border, said that the campaigns in Waingmaw Township and other cities are designed to make people aware of the value of the environment and encourage people to grow trees. ?To have a good environment, everyone has a duty to take care of it and to love of it,? he said.
