COP26: Nigeria Sends Strong Message To Rich Nations

by HASSAN ABUBAKAR MUHAMMAD | 14-11-2021 07:06 recommendations 0

"Nigeria - as did all the countries in the developing world - came here to say we are eager to contribute to a greener planet, even thoug we are, for all practical purpose, non-emitters."

Said President Muhammadu Buhari."Africa, overall, is responsible for merely five percent of global greenhouse emissions, we are nonetheless feeling cheated, oppressed, and lied to by the rich nations."

President Buhari's speech, which centered on a number of issues agitating Africa and the developing countries the major emitters which brought the world's climate to this sorry state for making promises toward climate finance that to date, have remained hollow.

The President told world leaders that the goal of transitioning from fossil fuel to clean energy, reaching a net zero emissions would require critical infrastracture to be in place in developing countries.
As maintained by the President, mankind has a duty to act on dangers posed by climate change.

    Hello Hassan, this is your mentor Hannah.

    Yes, the speech seems to have quite strong claim.
    Since the topic contains political issues, I'm trying to be careful to say, but
    I do agree that developing countries need some help to build infrastractures if they want to
    promise the net zero emission.
    Thank you for your great article and please keep up with your wonderful work :)

    Sincerly,
    Hannah

    Hello Hassan, this is your mentor Joon.

    Though there are different movements being made regarding nature, and environment, it is crucial to have shared opinions among leaders of different nations, and everything is interrelated. Though there are different conferences to talk about it, not many countries are participating it, or take it seriously into account. Hope more leaders share their opinions, debate about issues, and make best choices.

    Well read your article, and let's keep up!

    Best,

    Joon
