|---|
|
After all the excitements about COP11 I reached the city of lakes, Hyderabad on 11th morning 7.45. After travelling for 45 minutes I reached my place for accommodation at Jeevan jyothi retreat house a nice place with full of greenery matching with the occasion for COP 11. On 11th i just roamed around jeevan jyothi retreat house enjoying the natural beauty , in the night i was also involved in arranging and decorating the conference hall where we had the conference for the first day. The first day the session was started by Ms Madhavi Joshi from CEE and Livleen Kahlon from TERI they gave the first session on Biodiversity and COP. They asked us to introduce and to speak, what we know about biodiversity, then they provided their valuable inputs about biodiversity conservation and information about interdependency of all the life forms on the earth. After 1 hour of session we had a tea break after the tea break we had a small presentation given by Mr. Murali from YETI his presentation was mainly concentrated on how YETI was formed and what is the work done by them. The main session by Mr. Ravi Chellam from wildlife conservation society started after the presentation by Mr. Murali , he gave his valuable comments regarding endangered species and the conservation of biodiversity. After his session we had a 1 hour lunch break followed by a 2 short movies- Stories in stone and back to the roots , the movies were based on environment. The last session was based on Values and ethics the session was mainly concentrated on Earth Charter International and its activities around the globe the session was presided over by Executive Director of Earth Charter Mirian Vilela. Before the tea break we were given the group assignment for the day the assignment was to figure out the problems relating to biodiversity in different areas in a chart paper. The subject for my group was forest and its biodiversity related problems. We stated problems like Deforestation, Forest encroachment, Climate change etc we were given 30 minutes for the assignment. I used our Eco-generation pencils which was given by Tunza Eco-generation for the assignment . The first day was like an ice breaking session where we were able to understand the concept of biodiversity and COP 11 in a better way.

Dear Christy,
Yup I have certain facts to be shared like because of climate change in the rain forest for the first 4 months the rainfall is around 8000 meter and in the next 4 months it is almost nil So how the species living in this kind of forest adopt to the situation is an important problem regarding biodiversity
