Biodiversity Loss talk @ Engie South East Asia (Jun)

Ms Corin Tan, Asst Training Manager in Engie South East Asia, invited Earth Society to conduct a Biodiversity Loss talk for their staffs on 09 Jun. This is the 2^nd year that Engie South East Asia invited us to conduct a talk for their staffs. The company especially catered Veg meals for the staffs who attended the talk.

On 09 Jun, Earth Society team reached Engie South East Asia at 11.30 am. We conducted a Biodiversity Loss talk for about 40 staffs on-site from 12 pm to 1 pm. The session was joined by another 90 staff online.

We presented on Biodiversity Loss, Overfishing, Deforestation, Climate change and Factory farming. From World Wildlife Fund 2020 Living Planet Index report, global wildlife population has decreased by 68% in the past 50 years. This is due to deforestation, hunting, overfishing and pollution.

Human’s consumption of the world’s resources now exceeds the world’s capacity to regenerate by 56%. (We are using the eqv of 1.56 planets to support our activities). We need to Reduce fishing, reduce Factory farming, reduce Consumption, support Meatless Mondays and Conserve Nature to protect the Biodiversity on our Planet.

Engie South East Asia staffs listened to the talk and actively participated in the Question and Answer session after the talk.
