Climate reporting is not popular in Nigeria.
This make many Nigerian unaware of the true state and danger we are already in.
The most saddening part is that many do not know that what they faced with are as a result of certain climate factors.
[INFOGRAPH] 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗹𝗲𝗿𝘁: 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗮𝗻, 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗗𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗔𝗶𝗿 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻! Nigerians must urgently take precautions because the hazy air many are attributing to harmattan is, in reality, 𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝗶𝗿 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 with serious health implications. Unlike natural seasonal dust, this polluted air often contains fine particulate matter from vehicle emissions, generators, industrial activity, waste burning, and bush fires—particles small enough to penetrate deep into the lungs and bloodstream. Prolonged exposure increases the risk of respiratory infections, asthma attacks, heart disease, stroke, and eye irritation and worsens existing health conditions, particularly for children, the elderly, pregnant women, and people with underlying illnesses.
Treating this situation casually puts lives at risk. Nigerians should limit outdoor activities during peak pollution hours, wear proper face masks where possible, keep indoor spaces ventilated but protected, stay hydrated, and seek medical attention when experiencing persistent coughing, chest pain, or breathing difficulties. Beyond personal precautions, this moment should also awaken collective responsibility—demanding cleaner energy choices, reduced open burning, better waste management, and stronger air-quality regulations—because clean air is not a luxury; it is a public health necessity.

Happy new month.
The temperatures are soaring, and so is the need for climate action. This is a reminder that global warming is real, and the heat we feel today is a sign of what’s to come if we don’t take action.
Together, we can make a difference.
We often ignore climate change until it directly affects us. but the reality is, rising sea levels aren’t a distant threat, they’re happening now.
Some parts of Nigeria are already experiencing the impact. yet, many still believe it's someone else's problem.
