SCI team invited Mona Al Alawi, President of the Bahrain Women’s Association for Human Development to deliver an Environmental Youth Talk on making mindful daily lifestyle choices to reduce one’s carbon footprint. Human activities such as heavy energy consumption have contributed to the release of greenhouse gases resulting in changes to the Earth’s atmosphere. The talk highlighted the importance for change to start with small personal actions to reduce consumption. Taking small steps to reduce your footprint can help offset carbon emissions which affect the atmosphere, weather and nature. One example shared during the talk was of the Amazon rainforest, which due to human activity, has become a natural carbon emitter and sink simultaneously. Over 35 participants had the chance to learn more about reducing carbon footprint in their daily lives and on the proactive small actions they can take.
