Environment Day, Every Day
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 30/11/2018
» A fun fact that you may not be aware of -- Dec 4 is Thai Environment Day and it has been for about 27 years. The Ministry of Science and Technology proposed that the date should observe the importance of the environment and natural resources to people's present and future, and raise awareness on conservation. The Cabinet approved it on Nov 12, 1991.

» Unless you've been living under a rock, you must have come across, on your Facebook newsfeed, artwork inspired by a recent scandal where Italian-Thai Development president was caught with hunting rifles and carcasses, one of which was a black leopard. In the aftermath, artists have protested with their powerful artwork in hope that due justice will be delivered. Noted Thai street artist Piyasak "Mauy" Khiaosa-ard is one of those artists and his cause/muse has always been the animals. You may also remember him from the Stranger Things floor mural he did in front of BACC for Netflix in October last year. We talked to Mauy about how street art can help drive a social movement.
