Mr Anderson Chew, a HR Executive in PT Trakindo Utama, invited Earth Society to conduct a talk for their staffs on 09 May.
On 09 May, Earth Society team reached PT Trakindo Utama at 10.15 am. We conducted a Global Warming talk for 50 staffs from 10.30 am to 11.30 am. We presented on the effects of Climate change on the world and showcased various solutions that scientists recommended to curb climate change. (Plant trees, Eat less meat, Green energy and 3Rs). We touched on environmental issues such as the Global usage of food/ water resources and World Hunger. We also spoke about the Destruction of Forest Ecosystems, which will lead to increase interaction between wild animals and humans and may increase the risk of zoonotic diseases spreading from animals to humans (such as COVID-19).
After the talk, the staffs actively participated in an Environmental Quiz based on the talk.
