Introducing "Arab Environment Monitor"

Mr. Batir Wardam has launched a special website/blog named "Arab Environmental Monitor": www.arabenvironment.net which also has an Arabic interface at www.arabenvironment.net/arabic/
This blog was created in February 2006 as a virtual platform for updates and analysis of the Jordanian environmental issues and now Mr. Wardam decided to expand it into an Arab platform targeting the Jordanian, Arab and international environmental community. Batir Wardam is an Ecologist by profession and education, and have worked for 10 years in environmental management with local and international organizations in a career that included Academic institutions, NGOs, research centers, community groups, media and currently government. He has also worked in various activities with the World Bank, IUCN, UNEP and most recently UNDP. In this career he focused on issues of communication and networking and discovered that information on the Arab environment is plentiful, contrary to what most Arab and international environmentalists think, but it is scattered.
