Hello everyone!
My name is saadatu Umaima Ibrahim, I am going to be talking about the importance of raising awareness about climate change. Awareness is the most important criteria to a healthy future and an element of the global response to climate change.
This awareness about climate change aims to raise environmental awareness such as global warming and increase ecological and climate literacy among youth. Furthermore, awareness raising will enable decision-making and encourages changes in our attitudes, values and behavior, which is necessary for both individuals and the private/public sector to take the actions required to improve the environment and prevent effects from climate change to individuals and society at large,
In addition, environmental awareness increase adaptation and mitigation capacities of communities and empower women and men to adapt to sustainable lifestyles.
In order to address all these issues effectively, it is essential to assess awareness regarding climate change in the general population.
