The New Wave of LP
(Legislate Peace)
Hello, I would like to introduce a new wave of Legislate Peace, LP activities today. Legislate Peace refers to activities involving citizens from around the world to help realize the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW). Thus far, many people have participated in LP activities including DPCW support signatures, peace walks, WARP offices, and peace education. In addition, various LP activities have been underway around the world recently, and what follows are some of the main activities we have been doing.
🌳Legislate Peace 1. Planting a Peace Tree🌲
First is planting a peace tree. This activity, which began with the suggestion of a peace-loving Ukrainian VIP, is a campaign to plant a tree and leave a message wishing for the realization of the DPCW. The purpose of this campaign is to hope that the DPCW will grow stronger and stronger, just as trees grow, to bring peace to the world. So far, there have been activities to leave a legacy of peace to future generations through peace parks and peace monuments, however, there has never been no such campaign through tree planting.
Just as a tree plants its roots and grows in one place over a long period of time, I hope that the DPCW will grow together in that region and make it a place of peace. This tree-planting campaign not only promotes the spirit of peace in the DPCW, but is in line with one of the UN's sustainable development goals – environmental protection – showing that HWPL is working as an UN-associated organization.
Starting with Ukraine, up to now, a total of 1,000 HWPL members from 21 countries, including the United States, Mexico, Nicaragua, the Philippines, and South Korea, are participating. Let's cheer for these trees to grow and remain a legacy for future generations as peace trees.
😀 I'm a part of planting the Peace Tree.
In March, the buds sprouted like the picture on the left, and today the sprouts have grown this much.
Actually, it was planted last fall after eating fruit, and it grew this much.
I learned from watching HWPL's peace activities that if peace is planted a seed like this, it would be nice to grow by itself in the passage of time, but the seed of peace will not grow without our efforts.
Many heads of state - both existing and former - have publicly declared their support for HWPL's Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW), citing it as the only solution to ceasing all conflict and achieving peace on a global scale. I truly believe peace will be restored in today's conflict-ridden nations through HWPL soon. May peace prevail!
