Inaugural Eco Symposium ends
The Six Senses Eco Symposium which took place recently at Soneva Fushi in the Maldives has set the foundations for global environmentalists to meet again to discuss effective and profitable ways to combat global warming.
Hosted by Six Senses chair and CEO Sonu Shivdasani, speakers included President Nasheed of the Maldives; the founder and director of the Forum for the Future Jonathon Porritt; Stefan Schurig of the World Future Council and Mike Mason of Climate Care.
Among the highlights was a commitment by British Airways to only use fish from sustainable sources in its in-flight meals and the beginning of talks between the government of the Maldives and BLUE Marine Foundation to examine ways to create what could be the largest marine conservation area in the world.
Shivdasani said: "Our challenge is to build on the initial success of the symposium and bring the thought leadership we have seen to a much wider audience." Details: sixsenses.com
