Notice board

One of the main objectives when we started with green shield was to enlighten the students of MCC about the presence and working of the Dept. EN Sci , yeah most of them were ignorant of its existence.
Once we got the authorization to make use of the notice board not a minute was wasted,
"THE DEPT. OF ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE" caption was put up barely 24 hrs after sister (principal) gave us her consent to utilize the board.
The very first information we put up was the "save the turtles" issue which was captioned as "Don’t say TATA to the turtles". Our creative team (comprising of katya, meghna and keerti) did an impressive job for our opening. Amidst the major issue were the minor snippets such as kick the habit where info about replacing daily habits with eco-friendly means was put up and SUP? This essentially was the recent newspaper clippings of environmental issues.
The next issue addressed was "PLANTATHON", structured by an organization called TREES FOR FREE. Green Shield members actively took part in this sapling planting spree in Devanahalli. The date and timing for the next plantathon was also put up incase students were interested and wanted to join in.
The most hazardous product in nature-plastic was the topic for the next board. Katya along with keerti did an inconceivable job. Since "no plastic" issue was being addressed in college at that point the timing was just perfect. This issue also appeared in a newspaper with Katya commenting about the current no plastic drive in college.
The present political scenario about NUCLEAR ENERGY paved the way for our next issue, ALTERNATE ENERGY- NUCLEAR POWER. Meghna single-handedly (i.e. apart from the nuclear reactor which Madhu drew) handled this issue and did some commendable job.
Our next board was captioned as "The E-Waste time line". A serious brainstorming session lead us to make a graphical representation of the amount of electronic waste produced over the years. This was our last board for the year 2008.
The next issue we plan to address in going to be put up when college reopens. Since it is a time when resolutions are made. We decided to use this as our theme.save the earth in 2009 for 3009!!!
