International Women's Day 100th Anniversary

Today, March 8th, is marked as the International Women's day. Over 100 countries around the world, with the exception of the United States, are celebrating her 100th anniversary. Women's Day was first honored in Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland on 19 March, 1911. It was transfered and remained on March 8 since 1913.

Women have been the driving force of the Green Movement and will continue to be the major participants all over the world, in the way Lady Bird Johnson acted as the Green Movement Pioneer in the United States.

What I meant to say here, today, is the importance of enpowering women and girls, and self-esteem and self-respect besides our duty as a mother, daughter, and wife.
