ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Scientists observed that human activities are contributing to the rapid change of environment as a result of environmental pollution. From time immemorial, climate had always changed but the change in recent years has been more rapid than usual.

According to a Yoruba adage “a forewarn war does not kill a wise cripple”. It is time to heed the warnings on rapid climate change by Scientists. Scientist are sounding the alarm on the effect of environmental pollution on global warming and the need for human being to rectify the situation. The Environmental Scientist have been making presentation on climate change at the United Nations for sometime now.

Some of the factors contributing to environmental pollution are vehicles/automobile, electric generators, factory machines, but Scientist specifically pointed out among other things plastic or petrochemical products such as plastic bottles, plastic bags, plastic wraps, plastic toys etc as a major contributor to rapid climate change.

Leaf wrap, paper or cardboard boxes are more environmentally friendly unlike the plastic products that are used in modern time. Unlike plastic products, when leaf, paper or cardboard box are dumped on dumpsite, it decomposes without causing any danger to earthworm, snail and other small insects. Likewise, when various leaf wrap, paper or cardboard are dumped into the river/sea, it poses no danger like plastic products that are dangerous to fish and other sea creatures.

If the use of petrochemical products cannot be totally eradicated, some actions can be taken to address the warning by Scientist, to reduce drastically the use of plastic products such as plastic wrap/bags. Many European countries have enacted laws on the reduction of the use of plastic products, while some introduced tax on plastic bags in order to encourage the use of re-usable bags. If it is important to wrap food, leaf wrap should be used in place of plastic wrap. The use of re-usable bags should be encouraged, using bamboo basket, clay pots to cook and keep food warm and reducing the use of plastic products will contribute to reducing rapid climate change.

Some actions that can be taken by the government are, enacting laws that could reduce environmental pollution, creation of waste/garbage recycling plants to process plastic waste for reuse and timely waste/garbage disposal.

The people, particularly the youths should embark on clearing the plastic waste that has polluted the river and the environment. Planting of trees and creation of excess rain water collection pit in form of artificial lake could reduce the effect of global warming.
