We would also like to invite our guest speakers here to share their messages with us. First up, we have the Honorable Mr. Ahlounsou Sorou Lucien, Head of prospecting and development of l’Oueme and Plateau Department in Benin; he is also a vegan. “And you know, the climate essentially consists of three elements: precipitation (rain, snow, and others), wind, and temperature. We have observed major changes in this area. In recent years, we’ve seen many changes in the world, confirming the existence of global warming. What are we observing in this century? We know that the climate is undergoing profound and alarming cyclical disturbances. As a result, several climate disruptions have been observed. Just look around us: Rainy seasons no longer arrive on time, or they come at the wrong time. And the dry season, is lasting longer, as far as we’re concerned in Africa. We have also noticed that there is the melting of the ice, of the ice pack in the Arctic. […] In fact, the greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon. But there is an additional greenhouse effect causing global warming. And the gases responsible for this are the water vapor and carbon dioxide. We’ve talked a lot about carbon in the videos you’ve watched. There’s methane, nitric oxide and ozone; these substances, these gases that are causing the warming through mechanisms. When we look at the additional greenhouse effect, much of it is from humans. Much of it is added from anthropogenic activities. It’s in fact, ultimately, humans are largely responsible for the global warming we are experiencing today. […] As far as we’re concerned, what should we do about it? Many suggestions have been made. I will discuss a few of them. The first thing is to change the way we consume and produce. First of all, why not? People have said it before me: adopt organic farming. […] Similarly, talking about alternatives, solutions that we can bring to the issue of global warming, we must think of an alternative form of energy other than the fuel we consume, which, in our cities, especially in Africa, with the combination of many factors, pollutes and dangerously damages the ozone layer.
