#BREAK THE CHAIN

 COVID-19 is a new illness that can affect your lungs and airways. It's caused by a virus called coronavirus.Because it's a new illness, we do not know exactly how coronavirus spreads from person to person.The coronavirus COVID-19 is affecting almost all countries and territories around the world. There is currently no specific treatment for coronavirus.Antibiotics do not help, as they do not work against viruses. Viruses are spread in cough droplets.It's very unlikely it can be spread through things like packages or food.The World Health Organization has announced that COVID-19 is a pandemic.

Kerala has launched a 'break the chain' campaign to fend off the Covid-19 spread, in the wake of a second wave of infections after a virus carrier family returning from Italy had created a cluster in Pathanamthitta district.The awareness campaign is also actively encouraging people to use hand sanitisers when  they are outdoors.

BMM II College of Teacher Training, Kottarakara is joining' Break The Chain' campaign launched by Kerala State Government to promote personal hygiene in view of the spread of COVID-19.

wetland day celebration

WORLD WETLANDS DAY ,FEBRUARY 2, 2020

A wetland is a place where the land is covered by water, either salt, fresh or somewhere in between. Marshes and ponds, the edge of a lake or ocean, the delta at the mouth of a river, low-lying areas that frequently flood—all of these are wetlands .Wetlands are a critical part of our natural environment. They protect our shores from wave action, reduce the impacts of floods, absorb pollutants and improve water quality. They provide habitat for animals and plants and many contain a wide diversity of life, supporting plants and animals that are found nowhere else.Wetlands provide an important range of environmental, social and economic services.

HISTORY

World Wetlands Day is celebrated internationally each year on 2 February.It marks the anniversary of the signing of the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance (RAMSAR CONVESION) in Ramsar, Iran, on 2 February 1971.World Wetlands Day was first celebrated in 1997. Since then government agencies, non-government organisations and community groups have celebrated World Wetlands Day by undertaking actions to raise public awareness of wetland values and benefits and promote the conservation and wise use of wetlands.

Wetland biodiversity contributes to ecosystem resilience, clean water, water supply, storm protection, carbon storage, health and well-being, tourism and recreation and jobs. Biodiversity is a foundational value of wetlands and an inherent part of the significance of these ecosystems. It is through wetland biodiversity that critical ecological processes are carried out. The contribution that wetland biodiversity has on broader environments, society and economies has also been historically undervalued. This year we celebrate the great value of wetlands and their biodiversity.
