China Education TV, National Geographic Channel and Yunnan TV celebrated the opening of a summer camp they initiated together in Beijing on Aug 7.

The camp aims to awaken the public's ecological awareness. Brady Barr, a celebrated reptile zoologist and field anchor for the National Geographic Channel, guides the tour.

More than 10 participants will go into the tropical forests of Xishuangbanna, in Yunnan province, on a journey to discover and film wild plants and animals, including wild Asian elephants.

Two Yunnan TV filming teams will film the journey. Once completed, the film will be shown on Yunnan TV, Channel 3 of China Education TV and the National Geographic's Chinese edition.
