xWHY? Science Express – Biodiversity Special is an innovative and unique mobile exhibition mounted on a specially designed 16 coach AC train, which is travelling across India over seven months. In the last days it has been in Kamakhya Station, Guwahati, and the local CEE Team + CARBON were supporting the exhibition.
HOW? In average more then ten CARBON members were joining the activities. In the main hall a painting 
competition was organized for class 3 to 8 on environment and energy. The winners will be invited to a national level competition. Furthermore volunteers were playing environmental games and initiating dance flash mobs on the platform. Also volunteers were in the train to interpret the exhibition into Assamese and thus make it easier understandable.
