On October 14, the first open lecture by Alexey Kokorin, head of the WWF program “Climate and Energy,” took place in Bishkek. The lecture was organized by the Environmental Movement “BIOM” in partnership with the Bishkek Financial and Economic Academy. During the lecture, A. Kokorin spoke about the main contemporary scientific views on climate change and noted that there is currently a unified position in the scientific community that modern climate changes are caused by human activity. Kokorin managed to dispel many myths surrounding the “climate” topic, including those about global cooling and the imminent arrival of an ice age. Additionally, one of the most important moments of the lecture was the guide to sources of current information, including in Russian, on issues of climate change. The lecture made a deep impression on the audience, sparked many questions, and lively discussions.
On behalf of our organization (ED BIOM), we would like to once again express our gratitude to Alexey Kokorin for the interesting and very useful lecture and for the tremendous contribution that Alexey makes daily in addressing environmental issues!
