The Role of Communities in Conserving Protected Areas
My story is on how I became and environmentalist. Human actions damage it, and how individuals can help. The essay focuses on individuals because while I and you may not be able to influence international commitments or government actions, we can change our attitudes toward our environment, which spreads to those around us, and I am confident that if over 7 billion people do the same, we will achieve our goal of saving the planet Earth.

Restoring the Lost Dominion
As a young 11-year-old girl in primary school, I was denied a right. Human-wildlife conflict around my area led to us being fearful, with children seeking to drop out of school for the sake of their safety. My personal school experience, which I’m proud to discuss, stretched my mindset and belief systems, making me who I am today. I envision a world where every child has a safe place to learn and a child’s education is not compromised by environmental factors like human-wildlife conflict, especially with ongoing climate change.
Operation Plastics Free Campaign
Douala, the commercial capital of Cameroon, has recently been experiencing an upsurge in plastic waste pollution. This is mostly due to increased production from the brewery and water bottling companies and inadequate waste management infrastructures. In 2017 the city of Douala produced more than 20,000 tons of plastic waste daily, of which about 2% was collected and less than 1% recycled. Environment and Food Foundation (E2F) in Cameroon is bringing up a new collection, reusing and recycling systems for plastic waste, with a traceable social and environmental impact on global waste management. Our innovative approach seeks to strengthen the plastic supply and value chains, create new jobs, and relieve Douala from plastics pollution.

Haven’t We Lost Half of Our Forest Cover in the Last Century? We Need Lose None No More
Let's not lose more than we stand to gain. Deforestation is causing extensive loss of our biodiversity, hunger and extreme poverty due to compromised rainfall patterns when trees that act as rainfall catchments in tropical forests are constantly cut down for commercial reasons. A bleak future awaits a generation which will not put in place accurate measures to denounce deforestation.
A Snapshot of the Experiences of a Young Environmental Defender: Seeking to Reconcile Human Needs and Sustainable Environmental Protection in a Least Developed Country (Ldc)
For more than three decades, the youth in Malawi have been marginalised, in actions that strengthen the climate agenda. Despite the growing awareness of the need for intergenerational equity, being a young environmental defender, especially from a marginalised background, has proven to be challenging. My personal experience is a brief snapshot of the realities of a young environmental defender, seeking to identify barriers and protection gaps in the existing frameworks. And the opportunities that exist within rapid response mechanisms, in providing immediate support to young activists.
Reusable Cloth Nappies for a Healthy Environment
Kenya has for a long time used reusable baby nappies on their young ones. We've a favourable weather throughout the year which makes it easy to use this product. Regardless, the recent years there's been a rise in use of disposable diaper alternative. The adverts project them as convenient and the best with many parents not questioning where they end up after use. This has led to another culture where consumers are comfortable disposing the diapers after a single use. Eventually, this has created a menace and we don't know how to deal with this waste; let alone waste management systems.
Parler et Agir Pour Le Climat et la Paix / Speaking and Acting for the Climate and Peace
Indeed, my story shows the need to speak while acting for the climate and peace in the region plagued by armed conflicts. In the context of violent conflicts and humanitarian crises as here in eastern DRCongo, we cannot talk about climate action without integrating a dynamic of peaceful conflict management because, without peace, all the efforts made for development remain in vain and without success.
Only in the Darkness, Can You See the Stars
"I always love to tell stories of the past to my grandchildren; it refreshes some beautiful memories in me. I could still vividly recollect when we were children how we used to catch a glimpse of those days’ serene environment; when we used to go to the bush and collect some wild edible fruits when everywhere was green and thick with butterflies hovering around, and birds singing." -Grandpa

Tiny Houses as a Panacea for Climate Change Mitigation and Biodiversity Loss in Zimbabwe.
A Case for System Change to Deal with Population Increase
Since the 1970s, the areas for settlement at Kinondoni, Dar es salaam, were full and no more areas were there for starting new habitats. But, to this date, people are building their houses and business firms. This means that even the areas which were not originally allocated for human settlement are now used for it due to the population increase in the city. This is harmful to ecology.
My Lost Pride
WAKATI SAHIHI NI SASA
The story talks about the knowledge I have on issues of environment, my personal experience on how impacts of climate change have affected me, it also talks about the initiatives I take in climate action, it further describes what has to be done in our communities to combat impacts of climate change, and it eventually speaks about the potential roles of young people to be engaged in this global agenda for creating a promising and sustainable future.
