The Middle East and Africa User Conference


The MEAUC (Middle East and Africa User Conference) was held at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre on December 10-12, 2012. At this conference they said, "We've adopted the latest technologies to better understand our environment and biodiversity, as well as to communicate with our partners and society. The environmental data that we have collected over the years and shared with our stakeholders has enabled us to develop and implement an effective environmental regulatory and policy framework when it comes to wildlife conservation and resource management."

Environment agency show how it tracks endangered species with satellite/radio and GSM transmitter tracking devices which has made it possible to acquire detailed data on many parts of wildlife biology including habitat use, home range size, mortality, survivorship, and migration patterns.

 "We aim to continue investing in such technologies and programs to allow us to keep conserving our biodiversity and preserving the Emirate's natural heritage," Al Mubarak added. In other words their goal is to keep studying and researching like they already are doing and not to take action yet. So why not take action ourselves?

 We don’t expect you to quit your job to tie yourself to a tree when the lumberjacks come but maybe you can help with little things. Maybe even something that will benefit your pocket book and not just our environment, such as the Magnetizer. It helps the environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions.  If every car and furnace had one installed, then our environment would be in much better shape than it is now.  Are you willing to do your share at least?
