GW talk @ Global Citizenship Camp (Jul)

Mr Anthony Lim, from Rest and Relax Hoildays Pte Ltd (a travel agent specialize in Education tour), invited Earth Society to conduct a Global Warming talk to a group of students attending their Global Citizenship Camp on 19 Jul. The Global Citizenship camp was held from 16 Jul to 20 Jul at Seng Kang Secondary School and NUS campus for a group of China, Taiwan and Singapore Students, age from 14-17.

On 19 Jul, Earth Society team reached Seng Kang Secondary at 9.15 am. We conducted a Global Warming talk from 9.30 am to 10.30 am. The talk was conducted in the school Library for 75 Secondary level students (25 Taiwan, 35 China and 15 Singapore students). We used both English and Chinese to conduct the talk as majority of the students are from China and Taiwan.

We presented on how Global warming is affecting the world and showcased various solutions to climate change. (Plant trees, Eat less meat, Green energy and 3R). We also touched on world issues such as Deforestation and Global food/ water shortage.

The students listened attentively and participated actively in the Quiz at the end of the talk. After the talk, many students came forward to provide feedback for the talk.

Students’ Feedback

The talk was informative. The speaker is fluent in Mandarin and English which makes it easier for the Chinese/Taiwanese students to understand. – Andrina, student.

人类因过度砍伐森林，排放废气，使全球温度上升。北冰洋大部分融化、每天有150种动植物遭受灭绝、人们流离失所。地球，危险！ - 许书梧，学生

我学到乐全球暖化带来的危害，也学到怎么制止全球暖化、保护地球。讲座十分有意义！希望下次还可以听到这样的讲座。 
- 唐世锐，中国学生。

全球暖化是一个十分严重的人为灾害。如果还不加以控制就会变成世界灾害！我明白蓄养牛羊等动物会排放温室气体。我会带动大家参与绿色星期一、响应‘周一无肉日’、并减少浪费。For the World, For the Earth!  - 薛博天，学生
