Saying that no there are a few, or no, truer countries which are more environmentally friendly than Rwanda is not an exaggeration; it is the reality. Located at the heart of Africa, in central east Africa, Rwanda is among a few countries that managed to sustain their environment. By enacting the concept of sustainability as introduced by the United Nations, Rwanda commenced, in the long run, by sustaining her environment, economy, and population. In the past, though Rwanda was a bit forestry, which would mean environmentally sustainable, Rwanda was not environmentally friendly because of some economic policies that did not consider environmental conservation. For instance, five years ago, more than half of the Rwandan population relied on wood burning for household energy production, which emitted many tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. In addition, there were no waste management policies to aid the effective disposal of useless products that contaminated Rwandan land, air, and marine environment. As a typical example, anyone could find polythene bags across the streets of Kigali and other sub-cities. Also, in Rwanda were no government-supposed projects to advocate for a green economy. Therefore, all the above-mentioned challenges hindered environmental sustainability that the government of Rwanda managed to mitigate by fostering the production of and learning about eco-friendly products, many of which are locally made. Around the sphere of ecosystem preservation and conservation, Rwanda assembled a national garbage disposal site in Nomba to capture all letters generated in the city of Kigali. That site appeared to be a permanent solution do not know if it will not be filled- to reduce land pollution and cleanliness and generosity in Africa. As if waste collection lite did not guarantee the desired environmental security. Rwanda invested a lot of money in renewable energy production to cater to the effects introduced by burning wood for industrial operations and home-based power generics. Today that Rwanda spends a fraction of its budget on eco-friendly energy generation, and many ever-growing preserved forests help Rwanda and Africa to capture some of the emitted carbon dioxide to achieve net zero this claim of renewable energy efficiency and effectiveness is supported by the fact that Rwanda's energy group national body in charge of energy production dedicated itself to supplying electricity to all Rwandans by 2024. By doing so, there are some remote regions, where it is difficult to direct hydroelectric power lines, but by scrutinizing those areas, the government of Rwanda, cost-free, donates solar panels to permanently born firewood consumption that may trigger aridity due to deforestation. In addition, Rwanda exclusively banned the use of plastic non-biodegradable bags that strained the ground ecosystem of Rwanda. These non-reusable products were highly employed in markets because Rwandan traders consumed those bags to pack in some (light-weighed and soft goods, like clothes, salt, and other stuff that are in small packets. Once used, those non-compostable packaging materials were thrown on the ground without any prior consideration. So, to tackle that issue, the Rwandan government, in partnership with citizens through sensitization campaigns, understood and executed the ideal of stopping consumption of non-biodegradable packaging products and introduced paper-manufactured envelopes to replace satchels. This sustainable packaging saved our environment from pollution that undermined agricultural production. It also sustained the economy of Rwanda because as they are fully used, they decompose into compost manure that is environmentally friendly and boosts the wealth of farmers. In addition, there is the use of reusable paper towels and compostable paper plates in almost all hotel-related businesses which depicts the un-doubtable concern of Rwandans for eco-friendly products. That assures apparently that in any field, either business or assets, Rwanda devotes herself to helping restore the demolished environment. Interestingly, Rwanda conceived eco-friendly inhabitants/residents. As said above, some Rwandans did not acknowledge the role of environment management, and they unknowingly or unintentionally ruined their eco-surroundings. Therefore, as the government of Rwanda has envisioned it as an issue, many campaigns were run to save and sensitize environmental protection ideology. As a typical example, there are many government-funded initiatives aimed at sustaining the environment; there is the ¡°Ndi Umunyarwanda¡± program, meaning I am Rwandan-that pushes nations to feel belonging to the country and apply all the advice from it. Eco-here's initiatives remind youth that they can preserve a green environment by planting trees on the uncovered arid hills of Rwanda. In conclusion, based on the aforementioned information, from the very concrete to somewhat abstract, no complaint that Rwanda is not green, and that stands as a reason for ranking top zero-or-a-few-emissions country in Africa and eco-tourist attraction country. In Rwanda, eco-friendly products are our slogan. |

Hello, this is mentor Seeun.
I'm glad to hear that the government of Rwanda has acknowledged the environmental problems happening in Rwanda, and is working to solve the problems at hand. Eco-friendly products have play a big role in this process, and I hooe that more people will start to use eco-friendly products willingly.
Thank you for your report.
