our environment sustainable(making it safer for the future generation)
Lagos as we know it is surrounded by water,making it unique and the pride of the nation,
Lagos serves as the commercial nerve centre of Nigeria accounting for over 60 percent
Of Nigeria's income,Lagos is precious and we love it,it is a land of opportunity where graduates troops to in order to make a living,but imagine if we wake up one day and there is no Lagos anymore,it is not surprising to note that Lagos is just three meters above sea level,we know that lagos is not an alien to flooding and rising sea level.

human settlements,increased storm).
According to an article in WWW.ciesin.columbia.edu"although the level of sea level amount to only a few milimeter per year and may be small,this phenomenon plays a big role in expanding erosion processes affecting most of the low-lying coastline in the world"(Lagos included)
Our human activities in a lot of ways contribute to the rise in seal level,these activities include:bush burning,cutting down trees,in the name of urban development.Buildings have taken over where we are suppose to have trees that will protect us,we cut down trees without planting another.Please spread the word it is important we protect our enviroment.
I see lagos with a sustainable enviroment,free from the effects of climate change,with citizens sensitive enough to protect their enviroment from harm.
Thank you
