"Call2ActJO Green Step Revolution:
Under the Patronage of HRH Princess Basma Bint Ali, the EarthDay Network & the Greater Amman Municipality, partnering up through the Call to Action Jordan movement, we presented to schools across the Kingdom the 'Green Generation' initiative an Environmental Education Revolution.
The 2009 'Green Generation' workshop sponsored by the Greater Amman Municipality, which was just one part of the Call to Action Jordan - Green Step Revolution, included activities for both teachers and students: basic material for environmental education in addition to follow up notes to be realized by the tutors in the future.
With the end of the workshop, the Call to Action Jordan - Green Step Revolution will now be set into action with the help of Jordan Environmental Society (JES) and the Energy Management Services (EMS) by incorporating the participating schools into a sustainable recycling program along with free energy audit calculations, planting the seeds of community service general environmental awareness into the core of the school system.
Call2ActJo joins forces with 350.org: All around the world communities are taking action to help save the planet and make sure world leaders are on course. The safe level of CO2 in the atmosphere measured in parts per millions (ppm) is 350, we're already at 385! It's urgent that we act together inorder get the job done ensuring a safe and just future for the world.

About Call to Action Jordan
Independent Activists - Civic Movement
In order to create an informed and responsible citizenry, civics must become an integral part of the environmental education discourse. Through active civic engagement, we can learn the value of participation in government and our potential to effect change. Democracies are built upon the assumption that a government must evolve as the needs of its citizens change, but we can only achieve a responsible government if the citizenry is actively demanding these needs. Thus, action-oriented civic movements are essential to promote civic and environmental education in the greater community.
Mission:
Call to Action JO aims to takle the lack of public awareness to environmental issues we are facing: educate, mobilize and inspire personal/community action.
Collaborations:
The Campaign against Climate Change/Gobal Climate Campaign (UK):
The Global Day of Action on climate has occurred every year since 2005 at the time of the annual United Nations Talks on climate change ( the COP or "Conference of Parties" to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change or UNFCCC). Action has consisted of rallies/events all around the world on the same day - or as near as possible to that as circumstances allow. Usually that day has been the Saturday midway through the climate talks.
Call to Action Jordan is proud to further collaborate with the EarthDay Network (US):
Earth Day, April 22 , is widely celebrated around the world, as a collective expression of public will to create a sustainable society. Earth Day activities educate and mobilize people worldwide for environmental protection. It inspires action on personal, community, national and international levels. Events are often scheduled for the weekends before or after April 22. The Network includes over 15,000 partners in 174 countries.
