Nigeria needs to join other nations in the push for greener societies across the world, the Chief Executive Officer, Visionscape Sanitation Solutions Limited, Mr. John Irvine, has said.
“Developing countries seem to be waking up to environmental issues and climate change, and it is time to put Nigeria on the map as we push towards greener societies,” he said.
Irvine spoke at a beach clean-up exercise to mark the World Environment Day in partnership with the Kids Beach Garden, the first sustainable beach in the country where children learn about coastal life and the environment.
The event had about 800 students from the primary school level to the university, and volunteers who participated in cleaning up the beach, planting coconut trees, as well as series of fun activities that ranged from horse riding to volleyball.
“The state of the environment is determined by the choices we make, which will make a significant difference if we all did something; and the World Environment Day is geared towards bringing these issues to the fore,” Irvine said.
