National Youth Environment Forum

Hahas <3 NYEF!

Yesterday was the National Youth Environment Forum when alot of people came from all over Singapore to discuss some issues regarding the environment conservation efforts in Singapore. These included discussions on Biodiversity and on Reducing our Carbon Footprint. It was quite a success, I must say. (:

I think that though the Biodiversity room was dominated by specialists, we had a great discussion about the various development projects in Singapore that seek to threaten the stability of the environment we currently live in. I can't believe that we have mousedeer, nor the fact that we have leopard cats in Singapore.

Definitely, this is all thanks to Naked Hermit Crabs Organisation and Nature Trekkers so we'll be able to know about the rich biodiversity in Singapore. Super knowledgeable people!

That being said, the final presentation of all the ideas were pretty good though we did not really stick to the time allocated but it's all in the name of ENVIRONMENT!

When we think of Mandai,
Let us not think only of the Mandai Zoo,
Nor the Night Safari that encapsulates in the darkness,
But the lush Mandai Forest

Cheers! (:
