"CARBON CHALLENGE"

On the 5th of June ,2010, our school had specially invited a few officers from the BP Chemical Organisation to come to SJK(C) Kong Min to give a talk on Carbon Challenge . The aim of the talk was to develop the students’ awareness about Carbon and its implication towards our environment. The talk was conducted by Puan Raja Tatina Raja Musa. About forty over pupils turned up for the activity .The two-hour session started at 8.30 a.m and ended at 10.30 a.m. It was an interesting and beneficial talk that would open the pupils’ eyes. During the session, the pupils were divided into several groups. Each of the groups had to present the task provided by the organizers. Each group was assisted by a volunteer from the BP Chemical Officers. We were truly overwhelmed and impressed by the commitment shown by the BP Chemical Organisation. We hereby would like to express our heartiest gratitude to them. It is hoped that the pupils were able to understand the effective ways to reduce carbon footprint so that everyone could preserve environment and lead a healthier life...
