Парк "Сосновий бір" в Черкассах, Україна Черкаси

Раніше парк «Сосновий бір» називався парком «50-річчя Жовтня» та мало чим відрізнявся від сотень парків в Україні. Але за останні десять років тут висадили молоді деревцята, встановили дуже цікаві скульптури, очистили численні прудики і перетворили парк в справжній сучасний оазис в кам'яних джунглях Черкас. Тут дуже цікаво гуляти, і можна зробити гарні фото)

Скільки років я мріяла побачити гори, а про мою пристрасть до природи знають всі мої друзі. І нарешті я добралася до них! Кожен раз ця частина України може здивувати знову і знову! Звичайно ж в першу чергу хочеться виділити повітря-дуже чисте і ароматне.. Влітку тут відмінний відпочинок-є річки, в яких можна купатися! У багатьох готелів є басейни. Взимку тут добре кататися на лижах. В будь-який час року тут буде дуже гарний відпочинок)

Добре, що збереглися такі куточки в нашій країні. Ця природа це щось неймовірно.

Тільки беріть з собою зручне взуття, оскільки підйом на вершину усипаний невеликим камінням. Спортивні штани, в них на мій погляд найзручніше. Також потрібно з собою захватити дощовик, оскільки погода на горі не передбачена. І не забудьте взяти гарний настрій, він вам пригодиться)

Kian Joulaee and Hanna, twin sisters and 5th graders at Public school 10 in Brooklyn, spent Wednesday night decorating signs and t-shirts for a Red Hook rally scheduled for Friday, a day of global youth protest day for immediate action on climate change.

Nevertheless, their mom Tannaz Fassihi received an e-mail from school administrators on Thursday morning that said that an optional field trip to the rally was canceled.

The City Department of Education ruled that employee participation would violate rules to ensure a "politically neutral learning environment," as would schools that stage their own climate action walkouts on school property.

Ms. Fassihi was crestfallen. As an Iranian-American who grew up in Tehran unable to express opinions freely, she said she had been excited to see her children's school teaching civic engagement by example, along with the teaching about climate science.

"It's so upsetting — I would have been so proud and happy, we talked about how each voice counts, about freedom of speech," she said. "Apart from that, we have been talking about climate change not as a political issue, but as a scientific fact."

Disappointment, anger and last-minute changes of plans have rippled through school communities in recent days, as the Department's ruling has forced the cancellation of similar chaperoned trips and activities Among the loudest disapproval have come from the Ms. Fassihi's Brooklyn district, which adds Cobble Hill, Sunset Park, Park Slope, Carroll Gardens, and Red Hook.

The district is home to many politically vocal liberal parents— a combination of wealthy and modest-income families, many of whom had relied on teacher chaperones to take children to the rally.

The kerfuffle arrives just a week after New York City's thrilled climate advocates announce that its 1,1 million students from the public school would skip school to attend the protests if they had permission from their parents.

Chicago, which is often said to be the birthplace of skyscrapers is ranked quite high in the list of modern skyscrapers released by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat.

Only New York has featured more times than Chicago with 6 structure enlisted. The Council has stated that if a building represents a change in thinking which is significant or a significant shift in technique, then a building might be called as Influential.
