Wake up. The Crisis is real

THE CLIMATE CALL

At such a time when everyone seems blury  and unrecognizing of any fact fundamental to our human existence, and of course unappreciative, the world with which we have grown seemingly unthankful and ungrateful for all that it has had to offer for our very own good at zero interest, it keeps our children up at night undoubtedly thinking about  such an unforgivable conundrum that has befallen our unflinching stubbornness  and our corrosive objection to the very minimum that is required of us to save our beautiful paradise from becoming shambles. 
Each one of us could only do so little, but, unfortunately, we have passionately kept a deaf ear green-lighting the road to extinction.
We have enthusiastically replaced the seas inhabitants with plastic bits, razing forests, choking on poisoned air, fouling our water and wrecking havoc on the climate inadvertently harrowing our mother earth, a complete malignance to our future generation.
As a nitty gritty, i think it is a common call for a common combined effort to stand up for our future and take pragmatic approach to stop this agonizing crisis, or continue with these shenanigan acts at the expense of our land as we lay in smoldering ruins after the weather scourge has unequivocally hit our homes in our stupor.

Uganda and Vision 2040

Should we sit on our backs and wait for the government to implement vision 2040? Who is responsible for the action against climate change? Under the aspirations in chapter 2 of the Uganda vision 2040 , paragraph (f) provides that “ Ugandans desire a green economy and clean environment where the ecosystem is sustainably managed and the liveability of the urban systems greatly improved ”. The realization of this aspiration will however not come by itself, it requires the partnerships of both private and public sector and the progression of this amalgamation will promisingly limit the temperature increase to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels as per the Paris agreement. The ability to adapt, mitigate and reduce carbon emissions will be decisive to preserve the world and Uganda in particular for future generations. It should be noted that sustainable development as promised in Uganda Vision 2040 is about using resources to meet human needs while preserving the environment. ...

THE PLASTIC TIDE

Washed out on our coasts in obvious and clearly visible form, the plastic pollution spectacle blatantly unveiling on our beaches is only the prelude of the greater story that unfolded further away in the world’s oceans, One biome that has become increasingly affected by plastic waste is the ocean. Nearly 13 million tonnes of plastic is washed into the ocean every year. Some plastics release chemicals in the water leading to cancer and other health issues, but the most prevalent issue is the consumption of plastic by animals, which mostly originate from where we stand: the land. For more than 50 years, global production and consumption of plastics have continued to rise. An estimated 299 million tons of plastics were produced in 2013, representing a 4 percent increase over 2012, and confirming and upward trend over the past years. In 2008, our global plastic consumption worldwide was estimated at 260 million tons and according to a 2012 report by Global Industry analysts, plasti...

In a bid to fully unleash young people’s potential especially in respect of issues threatening their future, youth should have skills & values required for their active participation in the decisions shaping their own survival. They should equally be inspired to understand the imperatives of building peaceful and inclusive societies for a safer and more sustainable future. As John F Kennedy said, “The future promise of any nation can be directly measured by the present prospects of its youth, and this world demands the qualities of youth: not a time of life but a state of mind, a temper of the will, a quality of imagination, a predominance of courage over timidity, and youths of appetite for adventure over the love of ease ”, to this end, giving young people a place in decision-making builds a broader base of citizen involvement and creates stronger, more inclusive communities. The MD of Global platform Uganda, Mr. Primus Bahigi at the opening of the 5th National Inter ...
