    Port Harcourt — The Youths and Environmental Advocacy Centre, YEAC-Nigeria, has trained secondary schools students in Rivers State on climate change mitigation mechanisms and waste to wealth value chain, as part of measures for the inclusion of the younger generation in its just energy transition advocacy.
    The two days training organized by a foremost environmental rights group, YEAC-Nigeria in partnership with other organizations and funding from the Bristish Council under the EU-ACT Program, held at Government Secondary School, Kpor in Gokana Local Government Area of Rivers State, for selected secondary schools.
    Speaking, the Executive Director of YEAC-Nigeria, Mr Fyneface Dumnamene Fyneface, said the training was imperative to not only catch the students young with knowledge of climate change, but also to let them know the impacts.
    Fyneface further stated that the training was also for the younger generation to be part of the process of finding solution to the negative impacts of global warming and climate change in their schools, communities and local government areas.
     “The students who had earlier in December 2022 received training on Waste to Wealth Value Chain as part of climate change mitigation mechanisms were in these two days training further enlightened on climate change adaptation to best practices.
    “They (students) have also been trained to apply the knowledge gained to explore business opportunities through waste to wealth, playing active roles and taking centre stage as leaders of tomorrow in the Just Energy Transition economy that has started globally with the launch of the Nigeria National Energy Transition Plan by the Federal Government in 2022.”
    Earlier, the training facilitator, Mr Ken Wibe, took the students on critical discourse on renewable energy practices and appliances reflecting on climate change as a reality facing the world today.
    Wibe trained the children on ensuring “climate action now” as a way of mitigating the effects of climate change as well as adapting to the best practices, and also exploring business opportunities in the energy transition economy.
