Abstract

The contributions of all and sundry are salient to the global efforts in mitigating climate change-associated challenges. While global communities are rallying round to discuss the effects of climate change with millions of dollars being sunk into the process of mitigation, it is so unfortunate that the perceptions about the climate change menace is quite unwelcomed. The implications of such attitude manifest in the attitude towards the causative actions being noticed which seemed to be unabated, most especially in developing countries. This brief communication examines the case of local perception on climate change in Nigeria and the way forward. Education and enlightenment on the reality of climate change and its manifestations are desirable at both local and international levels by relevant stakeholders.
尼日利亚的气候变化情景:当地的看法和前进的道路
各方对减缓气候变化相关挑战的全球努力的贡献是显著的。虽然全球社会正在团结起来讨论气候变化的影响,并为减缓进程投入了数百万美元,但不幸的是,人们对气候变化威胁的看法相当不受欢迎。这种态度的影响表现在对正在注意到的导致性行动的态度上,这种态度似乎有增无减,尤其是在发展中国家。这篇简短的文章探讨了尼日利亚当地人对气候变化的看法以及未来的道路。在地方和国际两级,有关利益攸关方都需要对气候变化的现实及其表现形式进行教育和启蒙。
