Sri. R.C. Bhatia,
I am happy to learn that the Indian Meteorological Society, Chennai Chapter in collaboration with Regional Meteorological Centre, Chennai and World Wide Fund for Nature-India, Tamilnadu state is conducting a one day seminar on "Climate Change" on 30th October 2007 at Regional Meteorological Centre, Chennai. I am also pleased to note that this seminar is being arranged for the benefit of school students with the objective of bringing awareness about the Climate change, its possible impacts and adaptation strategies. I am also pleased to know that it will be interactive session where the students will be given the opportunities to express their views on climate change issues and improve their knowledge in the subject. The specialists will deliver lectures on the science of Meteorology with particular reference to climate change and its impact on environment and society. The event is indeed at the most crucial time as tremendous importance has been attached to the issue of climate change with recent award of ‘’Noble Peace Prize 2007” to Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change.
I am sure that this effort will go a long way is educating the community in general and the students in particular.
I extend my good wishes for the success of the seminar..
