It is normal expectations for Governments to support courses but these phenomena do not work in Africa, so what left is sacrifice from everyone in this emergency of threat from climate change. We have to use every mean available to us to help curb this menace. Research and technology could be the surest way of addressing this, but need funding to do that, our foreign investors or development partners such as USAID, UKAID and others seem to support campaigns on the issues than giving the needed scientific tools to tackle the issues. Awareness creation is key but the final resort are pragmatic measures put in place to deal the issues.

We have come to the end of Week 1 for our discussion on agriculture and climate change. It has been a very good week as it was all about getting to know each other and what we expect to learn about climate change.

A big up to all who participated fully this week by introducing themselves and participating in the icebreaker activity. Remember, people who participate in Week 1, 2, 3 & 4 will receive a certificate of participation at the end of the discussion. Please make sure you do not miss this opportunity.

We have three resource people that will make sure we learn a thing or two and all questions are answered.

Enjoy your weekend!

I was impressed with the topic of discussion on climate change which has been a major isure in Nigeria and other parts of Africa continent as a result of bush burning and felling down trees in our farms and Hamlet

But the case of Nigeria things are getting worsen because the only alternative is cooking gas as I am speaking to u now the price of cooking gas has skyrocketed day by day now people are now returning to cutting down trees it has become a major set back to us the government instead of them to monitor the price of cooking gas or set up an agency to control the sales of the gas but nothing is happening now the locals have no option than to go back to fall down trees for charcoal production and cooking
