Biodiversity Awareness Society

 We decided to stick to the idea of establishing a students society and name it BDA (Biodiversity Awareness). It would be designed to not only raising awareness of the biodiversity of the site but also meet the objectives of Goldsmiths's Biodiversity Action Plan and the concerns of London Wildlife Trust:

Promote and implement biodiversity; raise awareness of biodiversity conservation issues and best practice; facilitate both formal and informal learning about nature conservation; increase awareness of the value of railside habitats; promote environmental awareness and personal responsibility; contribute towards relevant local and regional Biodiversity Action Plans and open space strategy objectives.

Preserve the biodiversity of the site; take climate change into account.

 As indicator species, fungi and bryophytes provide important clues about the condition of the environment. By observing them, it is hoped to determine the health of the site.
