However, the impacts of climate change have had multiple negative consequences for Uttarakhand’s biodiversity, serving as a reminder that if biodiversity isn’t conserved without any delay, the survival of mankind will be in grave danger. In this setting and background the panel discussion forum being organized by the CMS Environment aims to synthesize the latest knowledge on the subject of biodiversity and climate change..

Howard Gardner identified nine multiple intelligences, including a ‘naturalist intelligence’. Those with this intelligence learn best when involved with experiencing, collecting or analysing something in nature or biodiversity, and therefore learn more through being outside. At the core of the ‘Biodiversity around You’ are three competencies of care: for oneself; for others; and for the environment. The programme is centered around mapping biodiversity in schools campuses with the help of a renowned biodiversity expert. The selected students will not only be engaged in exploring and documenting biodiversity in their respective schools but will also be displaying it through photographs, drawings, paintings, stories etc in the school gallery.
