With all the things happening these days, perhaps the devil may just be making plans to relocate to Nigeria. 1 Like |

well. it is only when we feel the results of blissful ignorance that we start to ask questions.. unfortunately global warming is a self-fulfilling prophecy we have been polluting the earth for so long hoping God will clear shit for us. Nigeria has been flaring gas for over 40 Yeats non stop. take a look at the air at night and see what u breathe in everyday. lekki dwellers do not realize that in about 30 years from now.. they will be under the sea 1 Like 1 Share |

Of course it's the effect of Global Warming......the Western world have been preaching it for years. Our ozone layer is thinning out. After this scorching heat, the rains will come and they'll be like mini-Katrinas |

It's simply the effect of global warming. Man burns fuel which releases Carbondioxide, carbonmonoxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and they trapped in d atmosphere preventing the excessive heat from leaving the earth. The heat is what we feel and it most times melts the polar ice leading to flooding at costal areas. The trees are adapted to remove carbondioxide from the atmosphere which they use for photosynthesis and release oxygen at night to the earth. Man's rapid urbanization and cutting down of trees are to blame. So plant a tree today...there are no witches there; I'm sure that is why most of us cut them down. They do us a lot of good and I can't remember a disadvantage of trees around. From Okaku Ben 5 Likes |

As a geologist there are no such things as global warming,why would it not be hot since lagos is over-populated,poor building design and proximity to the ocean |

Re: Is The Recent Heat An Effect Of Global Warming? by Nobody: 10:42pm On Dec 11, 2014 |
I think the temperature in Lagos is still when compared to the hell-fire in Ondo state. This state is really repping its name "sunshine state". I've gotten stress-pimples on my face now and my light-skinned co-worker is tanned now. |

It's quite funny how quick we are to forget that its the same year in, year out. I remember wen I was in skool; ogbomoso 2003, residents slept outside. It all only get humid early next year so make a pool ur companion |
Re: Is The Recent Heat An Effect Of Global Warming? by EndtimeBlessing: 10:52pm On Dec 11, 2014 |
I believe it is as a result of high temperature and population density and unplanned settlement. As we speak now, in most parts of Russian and Canadian, they must be wishing their temperature can even increase to 0 degrees. |

[quote author=marieolae post=28482607] Honestly, its getting to me. To the extent that I find it difficult to leave my house within the hours of 12-3pm I try to avoid walking directly under the sun,, if I must walk on the road it should be during the evening. There's nothing that we can actually do about it,, managing is our only option. [/quo Like seriously, I'm saddened when I see replies like this-"There's nothing we can do, we should manage..." This is why the white man is different from us. They dare and they try to solve. We mustnt cope or adapt to the excruciating heat. Our landdscapes can be made cooler through human actions. Simple. When Fashola started planting trees on some major ways, lagosians began to yab him (he's distracting us with trees) TREE PLANTING iS THE WAY- check very well, the residential and living areas of Lagos lack tree covers. You can only see trees in the remotes of Mowe or Ajah or Epe. The heart of Lagos is bare. This exposes us to the direct rays of the sun whose impact on the earth is higher (due to much depleted ozone moecules, which otherwise would have absorbed the hot CO2 molecules which cause the heat) With the tree covers, the leaves absorb the CO2, thereby reducing the heat and giving shade and, releasing the cooling oxygen to cool our environs. Who has been to JOS here? You will get a picture. I really wonder what the Lagos ministry of environment is doing besides overseeing LAWMA and refuse collection. They ought to have embarked on tree planting years ago. The sun is killing. Excuse me, let me put on my 1952 classic cameron gold designed polaroid sunglasses because...its getting hot out here. I'm out. 2 Likes |
