  As part of its ongoing effort to enlist children as the guardians(one who guards)of the future in the fight to save the earth’s environment, the United Nations ecological agency has announced its annual painting competition on the theme of deserts and desertification(沙漠化).

  “Children are an important part of our world.They are our future and often they are our conscience.”Klaus Toepfer, Executive Director of the UN Environmental Program(UNEP)said.

  “Our children provide the inspiration, the enthusiasm and the idealism that this world needs.They know something needs to be done and we must listen to them.One way in which we can listen to them is by giving them the opportunity to express themselves in art-and by taking their art seriously.”

  The International Painting Competition on the Environment is part of UNEP’s program for children and youth entitled Tunza, which means to treat with care and respect in Swahili.

  Besides UNEP, the competition is supported by the Japan-based Foundation for Global Peace and Environment(FGPE), Bayer AG and the Nikon Corporation.It has been held annually since 1990 and in that time has received over 160,000 entries from children in over 100 countries.

  The theme of this year’s Competition, Deserts and Desertification ,is also the theme of the 2006 International Year as well as World Environment Day of that year.

  The issue of desertification concerns the entire planet, UNEP says, because around one third of the world’s population live in drylands and their worsening is a very real threat to people’s lives and livelihoods, as well as to the health of the planet as a whole.

  Children who will be between the ages of 6 and 14 years on World Environment Day 2006(5 June 2006)from all regions of the world are invited to deliver their paintings on the theme to their Regional UNEP Office by 20 January 2006.Further information can be obtained at the Competition’s website [ www.unep.org/tunza/paintcomp15]

  April 6, 2005 BERLIN-It has led to numerous expeditions, several mysterious deaths and plenty of books.But 60 years after Nazi officers hid metal boxes in the depths of Lake Toplitz, a new attempt is being made to recover the Third Reich's fabled(传说中的)lost gold.The Austrian government has given a U.S.team permission to make an underwater expedition to the bottom of the lake.

  Groups of treasure hunters have been racing to Lake Toplitz ever since a group of diehard Nazis escaped to this picturesque part of the Austrian Alps in the final months of the Second World War.With U.S.troops closing in and Germany on the edge of collapse(垮台), they shipped the boxes to the bank of the lake, and sunk them.

  Nobody knows exactly what was inside.Some believe the boxes contained gold stolen by German troops throughout Europe and carried back to Germany.Others think that they contained documents showing where possessions confiscated(没收)from Jewish victims were hidden.The state company that controls the lake, Bundesforste AG, has signed a contract with Norman Scott, an American treasure hunter, who hopes to solve the mystery.

  Later this month, Scott will begin a detailed underwater expedition of the 350-foot-deep lake, though there is official doubt that there is anything left to find.“I really don't know if there is anything down there, but we want to resolve the mystery once and for all,”Irwin Klissenbauer, a director of Bundesforste AG, told the Guardian Tuesday.“The aim at first is to measure the lake.”He added:“This is a beautiful area.You have heard of Loch Ness.For Austrians this has been a bit like Loch Ness.Lots of people come here.And whether there is gold down there or not, the mystery has been very good for tourism.”

  Klissenbauer said that under the terms of the deal--which allows the U.S.team to dive for the next three years-any treasure found will be divided between the Americans and the Austrian state.“Obviously if they recover anything which has a recognizable owner, under Austrian law we have to give it back.”
