    MYTHS ABOUT
    CLIMATE CHANGE

    1. "CO2 is not a pollutant. It’s a GREEN gas


    which plants, crops and trees need to grow."

    This is a misinformed statement.

    2. "Polar bears have increased their
    numbers. They have obviously
    benefitted from climate change."

    THIS IS TOTALLY
    UNTRUE

    3. "Everything is affected by climate

    Donald Trump on
    climate change:
    "Ice storm rolls
    from Texas to
    Tennessee - I'm in
    Los Angeles and it's
    freezing. Global
    warming is a total,
    and very expensive,
    hoax!"

    WHAT IS CLIMATE CHANGE ?
    DEFINITION:

    A change in global or regional climate


    patterns, in particular a change apparent from the
    mid to late 20th century onwards and attributed
    largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon
    dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels.
    NASA defines climate change as: ’’a broad
    range of global phenomena created predominantly by
    burning fossil fuels, which add heat-trapping gases to
    Earth’s atmosphere’’.

    CAUSES OF CLIMATE CHANGE
    The main cause of climate change is global warming, which has many
    negative consequences on physical, biological and human systems, as
    well as other effects.

    Global
    warming is caused by the greenhouse effect, a natural process by which
    the atmosphere retains some of the Sun’s heat, allowing the Earth to
    maintain the necessary conditions to host life. Without the greenhouse
    effect, the average temperature of the planet would be -180C.

    The problem is that daily


    human activities maximize the greenhouse effect, causing the planet’s
    temperature to increase even more.

    “According to Raffaello Cervigni,
    Lead Environmental Economist at the
    World Bank, climate change is likely to
    make food, energy, and water security
    harder for Nigeria to achieve’’.

    WHAT HAS NIGERIA DONE
    President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday May 2017 in Paris, France,
    appealed to the international community to support Nigeria’s commitment to
    reducing the negative effects of climate change.
    On steps Nigeria has taken to meet its national goal in this respect, he said
    the country has “embraced the issuance of the green bond as an innovative
    and alternative source of projects funding that would:
     help reduce emissions
     provide renewable energy
     low carbon transport

    Many of the challenges facing
    humankind, such as climate change,
    water scarcity, inequality and hunger,
    can only be resolved at a global level
    and by promoting sustainable
    development.
