Limiting Human Impact on the Environment

Clean Climate and Environment Campaign Initiative (CCAECI) is committed to taking responsibility for, and promoting, sustainable action in today’s world. Meeting needs and solving challenges across the globe are prime factors for a better state of the world, so it makes sense for each of us, individually and collectively, to treat sustainable action as everybody’s business.

The most dangerous and constant threat to the Earth today is environmental pollution. Hazardous pollutants and chemicals from industries, vehicle emissions and everyday human activities such as cooking spread toxins around the world every day. These toxins affect our environmental resources — air, water and soil — and are slowly bringing down our ecosystem. These problems require immediate scientific attention to find appropriate, cost-effective solutions.

Across the African continent and in developing countries, many provisions of the laws and regulations on pollution are no longer effective enough to cope with modern, sophisticated and fast-changing environmental development and sustainability needs.

Would people care more about the environment if they better understood how it affects them personally? Many of the ways we harm our environment come back to haunt us in the form of sickness and death. Realising that the pesticide-laced foods we eat, the smokestack-befouled air we breathe and the petrochemical-based products we use all affect our quality of life is a big part of the reason so many people have “gone green” in recent years.
