Philately - An Educational Tool..






Hi ! In response to my post on Climate change http://rainbowstampclub.blogspot.com/2009/02/climate-change.html , there was a comment how stamps can play an important role is explaining various topics to the children and common man. I have gone through following links. It's a wonderful presentation on global warming through postage stamps. I want to share this with you. You would really find it interesting.Apart from fun Philately is an important educational tool ! I am giving the link below with original comment.



Surely stamps can be used as an educational tool to talk in an appealing way to children or general to media about global warming.More about this specific use of stamps at http://climatechange.dreamhosters.com see also a presentation with stamps talking about global warming at http://ec.europa.eu/environment/networks/cbn-e/doc/resources/climate_change_on_stamps.pdf
