“Green Justice”, a virtual awareness program organized by Leo Club of University of Moratuwa was successfully held on 30th of October 2025 from 7.30 PM onwards via Zoom. The primary objective of this initiative was to enhance public understanding of environmental laws and to emphasize their importance in protecting the natural world on which we all depend.
The program featured two distinguished speakers.
The first speaker, Dr. Shanika De Alwis, Photonic Engineer and Educator based in the United Kingdom, shared valuable insights on relationship between scientific literacy and environmental responsibility. Her contribution encouraged participants to view environmental protection as a collective human obligation grounded in informed awareness.
The second speaker, Mr. Janaka Abeysekera, Attorney-at-Law (JPUM) and Environmental Consultant at Legal Planet, provided a comprehensive overview of key environmental regulations, their objectives and how legal frameworks help safeguard ecosystems. His thought-provoking explanations offered attendees a clearer understanding of how environmental laws guide communities toward sustainable practices.
Throughout the session, participants were reminded that justice should extend beyond humanity to include the planet itself. The program encouraged individuals to reflect on their personal roles in protecting natural resources and promoting environmental stewardship.
We extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who contributed to the success of “Green Justice” and to all participants whose engagement enriched the purpose and impact of the event.
