Episode Summary: In this episode, Olanbanji and Inma talk about the relationship between the environment and health
According to a UN study, the direct damage cost to health incurred by climate change is estimated to be between 2 to 4 billion per year in 2030.
Inma and Olabanji discuss the bittersweet memory of when the sky appeared clear all over the world from covid lockdowns that caused everything to suddenly slow down.
Olabanji shared how the community successfully campaigned when black soot was all over his city. Faced with public discontent, the politicians had no solution other than implementing adequate measures to end pollution from black soot.
This proved that lobbying and campaigning could trigger public response and politicians to find solutions.
So get involved! No matter how big or small is your contribution, get involved because your voice matters.
