International Earth Day [ 2006-04-24 09:24 ]
A tall shadow is cast over the world as a Ukrainian child helps to draw a
chalk picture of the earth during a public environmental awareness project to
mark international Earth Day, in the capital city of Kiev, Saturday, April 22,
2006. On April 26, the world will mark the 20th anniversary of the explosion at
the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, which sent radioactive cloud across Europe
and was the world's worst ever nuclear accident. The writing reads in Russian
''our world is unique''.(AP)
