Abstract:

The increasing significance of the effects of climate change in Nigeria necessitates research on how stakeholders can respond. With climate change being a major focus of global action, and social media emerging as a key tool for social mobilization, this research focuses on understanding how Nigeria's social media space can be leveraged to improve climate change mobilization among Nigerian users. To understand the current interactions with climate change topics, this study examined Nigeria's Twitter space, analyzing the level of engagement and sentiments about climate change. Furthermore, the

Abstract:

Climate change is a global issue that affects every country, a pressing issue that requires global response. Nigeria is one of the countries that are most affected by climate change. The Nigerian government has recognized the impact of climate change on the country's economy, health, and environment, and has put in place laws and policies to address the issue. However, the question remains whether these laws and policies are effective in mitigating the impact of climate change or if they are simply symbolic gestures with no real impact on the ground.

Abstract:

Nigeria's human and environmental health is severely impacted by climate change related phenomena such as flooding, air pollution, droughts, erosion, etc. The effects of climate change on environmental and human health in Nigeria suggests that it is now urgent to take health concerns into account when making mitigation and adaptation plans for the effects of climate change. For the Nigerian health sector to be managed effectively, mitigation and adaptation methods are consequently required.

Abstract:

A very important issue that needs to be addressed urgently across the globe is the issue of climate change. Nigeria as a country is not left out in the battle against climate change. One of the major things that results in the change in climate is the low level or inadequate laws governing activities which lead to climate change. The laws available are ineffective as the level of compliance with the existing laws is extremely low; ignorance on the part of Nigerians is another major issue as an average Nigerian is not aware that his/her day-to-day activities might result in a change in climatic

Abstract:

Within Nigeria and Ghana, pastoralists face increasing adversity from climate change and marginalisation due to a complex combination of factors, further amplified by highly sensitive and increasingly violent conflicts with farmers. While climate change exacerbates the vulnerability of pastoralists, this remains largely unaccounted for in current Nigerian and Ghanaian pastoral livestock policy. Employing a thematic analytical approach, the article assesses the representation of pastoralists within climate change adaptation strategies in Ghana and Nigeria, and the impact of this on their liveli

Abstract:

Cassava is an important food crop in Nigeria providing households food security and income. Cassava production has received government and stakeholders’ intervention dating back to the 1970s. Nevertheless, increased and sustainable production of the crop is under threat by exogenous factors of climate change and variability. This study investigates this concern by assessing the effects of climate change on cassava output in Ondo state, Nigerian using Co-integration and Error-Correction Modelling (ECM). Time series (1971-2010) data were sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), National B

Abstract:

Climate change is having serious impacts on the sustainability of the world. Growing scientific exactitude on causes and effects of climate change makes humanity’s response to it an urgent and critical need. Nigeria like many countries around the world is facing difficult times owing to the new environmental realities produced by the menace. Responding to climate change requires humanity’s best social, political, scientific, and technological efforts. To achieve this, this paper notes that digitalization can be a veritable climate change response tool in Nigeria. Dwelling on Schumpeter’s theor

Abstract:

Climate change is the reason behind most contemporary economic problems. The rising inflationary pressures in the food sector are one of these problems, and stable food prices are a necessity for economic development and social cohesion in societies. Therefore, this study analyzes the relationship between food prices and climate change in Nigeria by using various non-linear and quantile-based methods and data from 2008m5 to 2020m12. The empirical findings indicate that (i) there is a time- and frequency-based dependence between food prices and some explanatory variables, including climate chan

The study objectives were to determine the short and long-run effects of energy poverty and climate change on economic growth and to theoretically describe the driving factors of household energy poverty status using the Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS) dataset, 2018. The Autoregressive Distributed Lagged (ARDL) model was used to estimate variables based on data from 1980 to 2018. The results indicate that energy poverty has a negative or inverse relationship with the GDP growth; energy imports contribute an average of ten percent to the value of the GDP growth.

Nigeria, like many other countries, is vulnerable to the effects of climate change. This study investigated the effects of climate change on rainfall erosivity in Nigeria. Changes in rainfall patterns, such as increased intensity or duration, can significantly affect erosivity. In this study, rainfall data spanning a period of 62 years, obtained from the website archive of the Climate Research Unit-Time Series v4.3 (CRU-TS v4.3) from the University of East Anglia, United Kingdom, were used to compute rainfall erosivity indices for 46 selected stations in Nigeria, across five agroecological zon

Climate change is the single biggest environmental issue facing the world today. It has become a great challenge to our generation and its impact is felt in almost every society in the world. Nigeria is one of the most vulnerable countries in Africa. Nigeria as a developing nation with a population of about 200 million people is likely to be adversely impacted by climate change due to its vulnerability and low coping capabilities. Climate change is evidently linked to human actions, and in particular from the burning of fossil fuels and changes in global patterns of land use. The impacts of hu

Abstract:

This paper is focused on reviewing the three key pillars of climate-smart agriculture (CSA) in relation to livestock production (i.e., increased productivity, mitigation of greenhouse gases emissions and adaptation to climate change) while exploring the development intervention options for Nigerian livestock farmers. The most serious impacts of climate change are anticipated in grazing systems because of their dependence on climatic conditions and the natural resource base, and their limited adaptation opportunities. Impacts are expected to be most severe in arid and semi-arid grazing systems

One of the fundamental determinants of buildings is the protection of the people who live and work within them from a harsh climate, but a lot of buildings in Nigeria are no longer providing the required comfort needed. The gas emissions through the use of mechanical equipment and lack of energy efficiency in buildings are the major causes of climate change. The way architecture responds to climate change is important. Thus, this research attempted, by using the new bioclimatic chart, to prepare the new climate classification of Nigeria.
