- My activities / interests
- I am interested in Environmental Sciences, especially Systems Analysis (which I also studied) as well as the role of forests in global climate change. And of course I spend a lot of time working on this platform for www.eurotope.net to bring young people from all over Europe together to network and to exchange ideas. I hope this will contribute to environmental protection in the long term, since people work stronger together.
When I am not prentending to work I love playing guitar and taking pictures (http://www.flickr.com/photos/8292819@N08/)

i'm beat, t'was a long and intensive week, but to what avail? a huge unfinished text with little convergence...well the technology aspect seems a bit more promising. adaptation less so, but we shall see...of course all the other topics are catastrophic.
sorry been out of touch. i saw you had sent some emails. i meant to respond but on the next day my account had expired. please feel free to write me here: eric.fee@web.de
Let's have a chat some time soon. How about we meet up sometime in Leipzig or Jena or Erfurt or even Dessau. It's all in about the same corner. Take care and hope to see you soon!

I've already being friend with Heiner on fb.
I thankful and happy to have such kind of nice friends and colleagues to fight together on environmental issues. So I always get my new spirit when it becomes loss.
Yes, It must be fascinating sharing with others environmentalist on upcoming event.
Get some fresh ideas, creativity to do something for our better environment.
I do my self really want to join it. I pray for us and other young environmentalists to join the conference.
Wish you get your funding to attend it, and I believe you can!
Regarding forest conservation, yes, I will always keep my hopes alive. Where there is a hope, there is a way
And for my self, I need to build my competence if i want to give better contribution. There is a lot to read, learn, and do!
Best and warmest greets,
Thanks a bunch for your info and contribution. I've already added my post to the event section. It's more organize of course. Thanks again, Mika.
I went to the field last week, to identify forest area use in Paser Regency, then I was crying during the trip... due to forest cover is now badly changing to palm oil plantation, open mining, then i often found forest fire everywhere.
Badly need to untied my crowded mind and planning to do action, between theory and practice i got, the current policy, and the real face of forest.
God opened my eyes and wake me up!
Hey, would you like to attend the event and revisit Bali, by the way?
Good luck for your study.
Im back in Bonn but for only a month.. and ill be back to my research field. Sorry if im not really active here.. kinda busy. How are you? are you preparing something for the Copenhagen meeting?
Hope all is well with you.
Cheers,
Grace

Btw, I was attending a workshop by Prof. Stein Kristiansen from University of Agder, Norway. It was about Economic of Climate Change and Forest Conservation. It's was a great workshop especially for my faculty here, Faculty of Economics and Business, Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia, not many of this kind economics-contribution-to-environment open-mind seminars/ discussions still. More over, in Indonesia, we don't have any government regulations obligation yet, to support green corporations (running to ISO 14001) especially for doing such environmental audit like I ever told you before.
Therefor I'd like to make it as my master theses besides also watching on the Carbon Credit issues. How about your opinion and also any recommendation journal/ references on this Carbon Credit besides from UNFCCC? Many thanks in advance, Mika! ^o^/
Go Green Spirit,
Dian

Cheers, Taufik
