Doha: The Ministry of Environment and Climate Change (MoECC) held an awareness lecture for the students of Ahmed Mansour Primary School during their visit to the ministry’s building.
The lecture offered them the techniques of preserving the environment, types of pollution and the threats they pose to the natural environment, as well their implications on human health.
The lecture was delivered by the expert in awareness programmes at the MoECC Lulwa Al Hamar, during which she focused on the criticality of preserving the environment.
She introduced the students to the MoECC’s strategy, along with its national role in conserving the local environment with its all types, whether terrestrial or aquatic, in addition to the endangered species, and the critical ecological equilibrium those animals represent inside the State of Qatar.
She discussed the MoECC’s efforts in this field which led to the increase of the number of those species, with the construction of natural reserves that evidently prohibit hunting or killing those animals.
During the lecture, Al Hamar underscored the importance of clean environment which symbolises a civilised appearance for the country, and is positively reflected on human physical and psychological health.
Meanwhile, the MoECC hosted a group of students from Qatar Primary School for Girls to discuss the scientific research titled: “Design of a robot that sterilizes the toilet with ultraviolet rays”, within the framework of the support provided by the MoECC to the scientific researches in Qatar schools.
The researcher at MoECC Susan Mohamed Essam held a brainstorming session with the school students during their discussion on the methods and techniques of robot operation, in addition to the anticipated benefit from the application of this research in practical and eco-friendly way.
