Kaduna State’s environmental stakeholders have called on all levels of government, organizations, and individuals to make investments in a sustainable environment.

The stakeholders made the call in separate interviews with newsmen in Kaduna, the state capital, on Sunday, while reacting to the 2023 World Earth Day with the theme, “Invest in Our Planet”.

According to them, this would ensure a better future that will be environmentally nourishing and climate-friendly for everyone today, tomorrow and future generations.

The Founder and Executive Director of Bridge That Gap Initiative, Mrs Gloria Bulus, said that the climate crisis was increasing at an alarming rate.

Bulus, who is also the State Coordinator of the Network of Civil Society in Environment, emphasised the need for conscious efforts, through increased investment in a sustainable environment for effective climate change mitigation and adaptation.

Also, the Founder and Programme Director of the Women Initiative for Sustainable Environment, Mrs Olanike Olugboji-Daramola, said that everyone has a responsibility of protecting the planet.

Olugboji-Daramola said that the 2023 World Earth Day presents a perfect opportunity to reflect on the beauty of the planet and the responsibility to conserve it.

Similarly, the Secretary of the Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) in the state, Mr Jeremiah Elisha, said that stakeholders must look beyond financial investment to build a new generation of climate and environment advocates.

According to him, to sustainably address climate change and environmental degradation, we must ignite the interest of the young generation in protecting and preserving mother earth.

On his part, Mr Uche Egbe, Senior Programme Officer, Communications, Empowering Women for Excellence Initiative (EWEI), called on stakeholders and businesses to shift toward sustainable environmental practices.
