It's the WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY....


Pollution has enormous human cost.
Particulate matter in the air we breathe, organic pollutant and heavy metal in our food supply and drinking water - all these pollutant cut short millions of lives including plant and animal every year

We dump our water-waste  into lakes and rivers, killing wildlife and contaminating our own drinking supplies, we dump millions of tons of plastic into our oceans and around threatening our wildlife and fragile marine habitat

Pollutants everywhere like stew
....waste negatively impact air, soil and fresh water as well as our oceans and the coast
Turtles are dying, whales are wailing, sharks are sparking, Coral reef  are disappearing

If it cant be reduced, reused, repaired, rebuilt, refurbished, refinished, resold, recycled or composted then it should be removed from production--Pete Seeger

Be prepared as;
The Nigerian society for environmental conservation- NSEC is joining the world in celebrating the world environment day

  Climate Change Climate  is  defined  as  t he average weather condition, characterized by long-term  statistics  (mean values, variances, and probabilities of extreme values)  of  typically  three decades , for the meteorological elements in a given are a . Climate change is described as the change in the climate of an area as a result of anthropogenic and natural disorders such as the depletion of the ozone layer   and the greenhouse effect. Changes in climatic conditions of an area affects species and ecosystem composition  function  directly   ( changes  in temperature, precipitation ,  water temperature, and sea level s ) and indirectly (changes in the intensity and frequency of wildfires) which has a great effect on the biodiversity of such  an  area.  Climate change is not one-sided . Both  terrestrial and marine ecosystems are vulnerable to climate changes . Species have shown modification in their morphology, physiology, and behavior due to changes in climatic variables. Huma

​ Living for others: A rule of  Nature by  By Ayodele Precious Ayowale Plants  take in Carbon-dioxide[CO 2 ] to manufacture food and give off Oxygen[O 2 ] as a by product through the process called Photosynthesis.  Animals  take in Oxygen[ O 2 ] to break down food and give off Carbon-dioxide[ CO 2 ] as a by product through the process called Respiration. Micro-organisms play a vital role in decomposition of Organic materials. All these are natural processes. T h e existence of life predominantly depends on the   radiation, carbon dioxide level, ambient temperature,   evaporative power of the atmosphere, solar and  water  availability ,  and inorganic nutrients .   All these are  a part of   nature   and its processes . “The existence of life  is greatly  affected by human-induced and natural factors” N atural catastrophes   ( v olcanic eruption, hurricanes, etc.)  are also another significant part of nature.

Birdwatching 🕊🐦🐧--by Uthman, a member of Ibadan bird club.

Birdwatching A natur e based recreational activity Birdwatching , or  birding , is a form of  wildlife observation  in which the observation of  birds is a recreational activity or  citizen science . It can be done with the naked eye, through a visual enhancement device like  binoculars   and  telescopes , by listening for bird sounds, or by watching public  webcams . Birdwatching often involves a significant auditory component, as many bird species are more easily detected and identified by ear than by eye. Most birdwatchers pursue this activity for recreational or social reasons, unlike  ornithologists , who engage in the study of birds using formal scientific methods. History of birdwatching The early interest in observing birds for their aesthetic rather than utilitarian (mainly food) value is traced to the late 18th century in the works of  Gilbert White ,  Thomas Bewick ,  George Montagu  and  John Clare . The study of birds and natural history in general became increas
