BIODIESEL CONSUMPTION IN GERMANY SLOWS IN FIRST HALF OF 2017

Report reaching us says that while diesel and petrol consumption increased, the use of bio diesel declined in the first half of 2017, although the higher quota on GHG emission has been in force since January 2017. Bio ethanol remained almost at the year-ago level.

March 2017 recorded the highest demand for bio diesel over the past six months, at more than 206,000 tonnes. This was the largest amount since July 2014. However, bio diesel use had been especially low in previous months. consequently, domestic use of bio diesel from January to June 2017 sank to 1.4 million tonnes. This translates to a 7 per cent drop year-on-year. Since at the same time, consumption of diesel rose 5.3 percent to 18.06 million tonnes, the incorporation rate came down considerably.

CLIMATE ACTION GROUP: CATCH THEM YOUNG.

Image
 The Climate Action Group,  an NGO in Nigeria focused on environment and climate change has recently launched a program tagged 'Catch Them Young'. This program as expressed in writing on their Facebook handle is all about involving children in taking action for Climate change towards mitigating the adverse effects of Climate change on our environment for sustainable development.  The project aims at orienting and sensitizing children in primary and junior secondary schools on what climate change deforestation and indiscriminate cutting down of trees are all about and their effect on the environment, also make the children know the importance of tree planting, empower and induce the culture of tree planting exercise in children as the leaders of tomorrow and have an eco-friendly environment where both the present and future generations will enjoy and protect. I think this is a step in the right direction in ensuring sustainable development in green growth. see more pictures belo
