Environmental Best Practices in Schools: Healthy, Clean, Resilient and Green Learning Environments for Lagos.

Literacy gives us the ability to read the world; climate literacy teaches us how to care for it — Unknown #ClimateLiteracy #LiteracyForAll

🌍 LAGOS CLIMATE ACTION PLAN: CLIMATE ACTION STARTS WITH YOU! A climate-resilient Lagos is not built by government alone. Every Lagosian has a role to play. The Lagos Climate Action Plan provides a pathway for building a greener, cleaner, healthier and more resilient Lagos. But its success depends on what we do every day—in our homes, streets, workplaces, markets and communities. ♻️ Reduce waste. Buy only what you need and avoid unnecessary single-use plastics. 🗑️ Dispose responsibly. Never dump waste in drains, canals or waterways. 🌳 Plant and protect trees. Trees help cool our communities, absorb carbon and improve air quality. 🚲 Choose cleaner mobility. Walk, cycle, carpool or use public transport where possible. 💧 Protect our water bodies. What enters our drains can eventually reach the lagoon and the sea. ⚡ Save energy. Switch off appliances when not in use and embrace energy-efficient solutions. 🤝 Take action in your community. Join environmental clean-ups, support recycling and encourage others to do the right thing. Climate change may be global, but climate action is local. The future of Lagos is being shaped by the choices we make today. I call Lagos home — so I must protect it. 💚🌍 #LagosClimateActionPlan #ClimateAction #Lagos #ClimateResilience #GreenLagos #CleanLagos #IcallLagoshomesoImustprotectit #ClimateChange #Lagosians #EnvironmentalProtection
