Climate Change & Biodiversity Conservation

Climate change

Climate change and biodiversity degradation have been responsible for the unstable weather conditions affecting the production and productivity of most agricultural products. This has lead to continual forest cutting in search of virgin land for cultivation. The situation has been made worse by indiscriminate tree cutting for wood fuel and other domestic usage, improper disposal of non- biodegradables, bush and soil burning with poor farming practices.
