The campaign aims to promote environmentally friendly brands and products among the public, call for green lifestyle, and contribute to the sustainable economic development by reducing environmental impacts of the production and consumption practices.<\/p>\n<p>With the theme <em>&quot;G<\/em><em>reen Families have fun and protect the environment&quot;<\/em>, the event attracted hundreds of local residents, including many children, to join with campaign&rsquo;s volunteers and celebrity ambassador in various exciting activities: environmental games, green shops selling souvenir items made from recycled materials, vegetarian&rsquo;s corner etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"sites\/all\/files\/old_woman_makes_paper_bag_0.jpg\" class=\"imagecache imagecache-Medium_250_Pixels_Wide imgupload imgupl_floating_right \" src=\"\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/imagecache\/Medium_250_Pixels_Wide\/old_woman_makes_paper_bag_0.jpg\" title=\"Old woman makes paper bag\" \/>\n<p>Many participants were excited to learn how to make shopping bags and origami folds from recycled paper, while the younger children joined the drawing competition on environmental themes.<\/p>\n<p>Hundreds of green consumption guidebook copies were distributed to the participants and many green gifts were given as prizes for the game and competition activities.<\/p>\n<p>The event became one of Vietnam&rsquo;s momentum &nbsp;for the global 350.org campaign 2011. At the opening of the event, Ms Hong Hoang, 350.org Vietnam Coordinator gave a talk about climate change and 350.org movement, and how individuals can contribute their bits for the common 350ppm goal.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"sites\/all\/files\/tree_of_commitment_1.jpg\" class=\"imagecache imagecache-Small_150_pixels_wide imgupload imgupl_floating_left \" src=\"\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/imagecache\/Small_150_pixels_wide\/tree_of_commitment_1.jpg\" title=\"\" \/>\n<p>The participants were more excited when the campaign&rsquo;s celebrity ambassador Kim Xuan, a famous actress, came out and gave an inspiring speech to encourage everyone to take simple green actions in everyday life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Then they joined the actress to make green commitment messages for the bamboo &quot;Tree of Commitment&quot; &ndash; a tree closely attached to Vietnam&rsquo;s history and culture, a symbol of peaceful life and sustainability.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Residents in the surrounding areas were taken by surprise to open&nbsp;their doors and find their favourite actress Kim Xuan right in front of them, when she was joined by the volunteers in visiting the households to&nbsp;distribute the green consumption guidebook and give away green products sponsored by the campaign&rsquo;s partner corporations.<\/p>\n<p><em>&ldquo;Let<\/em><em>&rsquo;s use green products.
