El Nuevo Diario, Santo Domingo.- The Faculty of Educational Sciences (FCE) of the Autonomous University of Santo Domingo (UASD), organized a conference entitled “The Impact of Climate Change on Living Beings”, by teacher Andrea Rincón, as part of the celebration of the 16th anniversary of its foundation.
The activity, carried out through the Education School for Secondary Training, in the Ivelisse Prats Ramírez room, in the Eugenio María de Hostos building, aims to raise awareness of climate change and how it affects the sustainability of life, to put into practice what is taught.
The Vice Dean of the College, Mr. Pascual Leocadio, spoke on behalf of the Dean, Mr. Juana Encarnacion.
Leocadio said that climate change is one of the most important challenges affecting all living beings on planet Earth, and that this important event is the search for solutions and mitigation of its effects to adapt to the new reality.
For her part, the school’s director, Adria Figueiro Matos, said that the topic discussed is of great importance worldwide to raise awareness of climate change, but it is also applied in the classroom with students.
The Exhibition
Andrea Rincon, during her presentation, stated that when one acts inappropriately, one violates and brings about a catastrophic imbalance in the survival and sustainability of the planet itself.
He pointed out that burning fossil fuels released a quantity of greenhouse gases, which led to the thickness of the protective layer and thus prevented the release of the greenhouse gas that occurs, which raises global temperatures.
He pointed out through a graph that, in terms of consequences for humans, it leads to crop loss, an increase in food prices, and in the health field it leads to the spread of infectious diseases, as well as heat stress.
Collective Actions
He pointed out that governments should be asked to express their concerns about climate change and demand concrete action, as well as support environmental organizations, as well as contribute financially to institutions working to protect the environment.
The activity was attended by former and current officials, teachers and students.
