M/s Emirates Environmental Group ( EEG ) , of which I am an active member ,  is UAE?s leading NGO on environmental and sustainable practices and they have a stall at this prestigious conference . I visited the stall and interacted with visitors and stall managers alike . This international event provided me with an enriching insight into the global innovations on energy and environment conservation.

The exhibition will run for three days from 13^th to the 15^th of the month and I will encourage all my peers , school children and members of the public to visit and learn from this event. It was a wonderful experience attending the inauguration . I have already informed several children in my school who will attend this wonderful exhibition.
