Çankaya Mayor Alper Taşdelen, who stated that the importance of protecting nature reveals again at the pandemic process that the world goes through, said that: “The food we eat, the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the nature that makes our planet habitable is to protect ourselves. The destruction of forests and wetlands, not leaving any living space to other living creatures  caused not only disrupted the balance of nature, but also returned to man as an epidemic caused by man. We have to live by knowing that. I wish everybody to love and protect nature before the world runs out.”

Çankaya Municipality, which organizes events this year just like every year due to the 5 June World Environment Day, carried out a different study.  Books carried by the garbage truck designed as a library were distributed to the citizens. Citizens also showed interest to the employees of the Municipality, who distributed books on the entrance of Bahçelievler 7th Avenue  and later along the street to increase environmental awareness and protect the environment for a more sensitive society. The teams, which distributed children coloring books and crayons, also presented Turkish Flag and Nutuk to citizens. Mask and purifying hygienic gel were also distributed since we have passing through the days of corona pandemic effects in the world.
