In order to improve Nigeria’s carbon credit, ensuring we have
adequate data on forest depletion and the degradation of the environment will
help in this regard.
Raymond Owa, the managing partner of Prigem Concept – an environmental
firm asserted that based on the various reports from different parts of the
world, a period of three years is needed to cut back the carbon excess. In order
to make easier the process, proper documentation and data is needed.
With the frequency analysis on extreme weather conditions
such as flooding and drought, vulnerability assessment to ensure early warning
system were more effective to assist the coastal residents and rural landlocked
dwellers.
“We
have depleted the forest from 35% to barely 5% because of civilization which
came along with industrialization, globalization and mechanization. But we can
start climate smart agriculture, agro-forestry, planned transportation system
and improved infrastructural development to check this,”
“We
wish that an action plan will come into effect very soon to check our obsolete
policies as regards carbon taxes, laws, incentives and subsidies to aid clean
development mechanism, low emissions development attainable and soft served."
