ABOUT MISS GREEN PLANET
Miss Green Planet is seen as a vehicle to help nurture a new generation of green activists, green models and green spokespeople for Corporate Green Responsibility. The Miss Green Planet debuts in Chicago, Illinois in September 2011. City, national and continental pageants kicks off on March 19, 2011 simultaneously in several cities across the globe. The Miss Green Planet becomes the 4th largest, among the most prestigious and probably the most important pageant in the World. It is bound to shake things within the international pageantry, as well as instill some hope and excitement in the fight against climate change and environmental movement as a whole. It's slogan is "Beauty for Eco-Change". It is a project-based pageant, as opposed to platform-based.
The pageant aims to have a broad appeal in all sectors of society- so that it is recognized as playing an important role in combating climate change and restoring destroyed ecosystems. Out of this group, the most important target group is young women who should immediately recognize the potential potency of the pageant in offering them a chance for actualizing their passion for environment. They can use the pageant experience as a vehicle to develop an understanding of who they are, what their life purpose is, create dynamic communication skills, learn time management and balance, strengthen their relationships, and establish a way of thinking that enables them to create the life they want to live, while helping heal the earth.
