The MIKE Programme was established by a CITES Resolution adopted at the CoP10 in 1997.

MIKE is an international collaboration that measures the levels, trends and causes of elephant mortality.

MIKE’s information base is used to support international decision-making related to conservation of elephants in Asia and Africa.

The information and analyses are also presented at annual CITES meetings and meetings of the CoPs.

One of the core mandates given to the MIKE Programme is to build capacity in elephant range States.

There are currently 28 sites participating in the MIKE programme in Asia, distributed across 13 countries: Open / Comment

2022-06-20 16:28:44 Biofuels

Any hydrocarbon fuel i.e. Solid, Liquid or Gas, that is produced from an organic matter which may be living or once living material, in a short period of time is considered a biofuel.

Examples include:

Solid: Wood, manure

Liquid: Bioethanol and Biodiesel

Gaseous: Biogas

Biofuels can be produced from biomass, such as corn or sugar, vegetable oils or waste feedstocks.

As biofuels emit less carbon dioxide (CO2) than conventional fuels they can be blended with existing fuels as an effective way of reducing CO2 emissions in the transport sector.

Biofuels represent around 3% of road transport fuels in use around the world. Open / Comment

2022-06-19 17:45:15 Indian Vulture Crisis

India is most favourable region for Vultures: Hindus do not eat cows, which they consider sacred, and when a cow dies, it is left to be fed on by vultures.

India has a high species diversity and hence vultures get lot of food.

Nine species of vulture can be found living in India. But today, most are in danger of extinction due to a veterinary drug called diclofenac (vultures do not have a particular enzyme to break down diclofenac). Open / Comment
