Dear Neighbours,

I truely, thank you for joining us in highlighting the challenges we are facing and destinated to face as a result of climate change. Today was World Environmental Day. In Uganda like many other low developing countries this day means alot to many people especially the poor, farmers, women and children among others.

It is a day to say no to environmental degradation, food insecurity and poverty. It is a day to say no to disease!

Developing practices to sustain our environment and the resource base on which our livelihoods depend is key to promoting sustainable livelihoods and good quality life.

The guests who have taken off time to visit our village and read our postings, thank you.
