 Now journalists and notists, or not eastern part of the country have been trained on environmental journalism by reporting the environment for sustainability. The two-day workshop was organised by Climate Africa Media Initiative in Centre in collaboration with the Dangute Group, our correspondent, found in this report. Four months after Adama was state government banned felling of trees, the trees fellers are yet to stop. As the state government is working round the clock to stop illegal trees fellers, price of charcoal has jumped from 1,500 to 5,000 as tree felling have continued to be a lucrative business. We are here because we received a call from local government chairman of Pupore that they have been deceptive. This brought Claudine Charcoal and you know this excellency, the executive governor of Adama market that I would be one of the country, has made a pronouncement that illegal cutting down of trees for the purpose of charcoal making it being banned from Adama market. So we are making every effort to make sure that this pronouncement has been put to order and then it's here to stay. The economic hardship the residents are passing through is also responsible for the increase in tree felling as many residents cannot afford gas or kerosene for their domestic activities. Charcoal is relatively cheap although the price has gone up from 1,000 to 5,000. People cannot avoid gas because it's very expensive. The Climate Africa Media Initiative and Centre, partnering with the Tanguti group of companies is now joining efforts with both the state and federal government to protect the nation's environment. This is the reason for the two-day workshop on environment journalism and the media practitioners in the northeast are to in turn educate citizens who need to keep the ecosystem for human survival. As we all know the climate service is changing. Climate is affecting so many things. A lot of impact is being felt across Nigeria and around the world. Well, I think the issues are well straight out. I quite understand that issues of environment are global. They are human. They are international and they are local. It's something for everybody in the whole world to be up and doing to understand the times of what is happening to the environment particularly nature. Some of the journalists that attended the training shared their views. Very wonderful. In fact it has exposed me particularly to a lot of things that maybe one overlooks in the society to see that environment is everything about us. Both the state and federal government are expected to put more laws on ground to protect the nation's ecosystem. So you get notified about fresh news updates.
