Inadequate waste management directly contributes to disasters and exacerbates climate change. Governments should review waste management & recycling policies, enhance their implementation, intensify waste management campaigns, & improve public education on proper waste handling.

Road trenches are not waste dump sites. Dumping waste in trenches pollutes lakes and rivers, harming aquatic life and human health. To protect our environment, we must keep trenches free from waste. Proper disposal is essential for clean water and healthy ecosystems @wambwadavies

🌍 Everyone deserves to live in a safe and clean environment. Protecting our water, air, and soil is essential for public health and future generations.

Promoting resilience and sustainable development in borderland communities like Lwakhakha is key to unlocking their potential. Investing in infrastructure, climate-smart agriculture, and cross-border cooperation can help these communities thrive despite challenges. #Resilience

The socio-economic models of World Bank & IMF in Africa need urgent review. Many economies operate outside legal structures, hindered by informality & poor environmental management, worsened by climate change & lawlessness. @RewagnEnviroped African Development Bank Group @AfricaSERNet

It's not that we can't solve global problems like poverty diseases & environmental degradation, but those profiting from them ensure they continue. Politicians only make it worse, pretending to help while hindering real solutions. @AfricaSERNet African Development Bank Group @RewagnEnviroped UN Environment Programme

A view of nature reduces stress and anxiety, and promotes healing. For a clean environment that supports good health, we should #PrioritizeClimatePolicies. @wambwadavies Government of Uganda UN Environment Programme UN Development MAAIF 🇺🇬 African Centre for Climate Research & Innovations. @AfricaSERNet

Thanks to @UNDPBorderlands, I’m excited to attend the @AborneNetwork annual conference in Nairobi, where I presented my research on "Resilience & Mobility in Agricultural Systems: Adapting to Changing Precipitation patterns in Lwakhakha border region of Uganda." @RewagnEnviroped

Achieving sustainable mining means more than just extraction—it’s about compliance, climate risk management, and community involvement. From environmental impact assessments to post-mining rehabilitation, let's build resilient mining systems that protect our planet. 🌍#ClimateAct

🌍 #Uganda's environment & mining sectors face critical challenges! 🚧 From sustainable extraction to restoring degraded sites, it's essential to balance development with environmental protection. planetGOLD Uganda Ministry of Energy & Mineral Development IMPACT Uganda EITI LYNN GITU GeoEng Centre

Mining waste facilities often cause the most problems after the active phase, as 'legacy mines', but issues also arise during active mining. We must minimise impacts on ecosystems & communities 2 scale up mining responsibly 4 the energy transition Ministry of Energy & Mineral Development planetGOLD Uganda

All that affects the environment always affects human health in a long run. It's always important to protect the environment during mining and the post mining period to preserve human health

Interlocked Stabilized Soil Blocks (ISSBs) are revolutionizing construction! 🌍💚 Sustainable, cost-effective, and eco-friendly, they’re the key to a greener future in the building industry. Let’s build sustainably! #GreenConstruction #Sustainability #ISSB ACP-EU Development Minerals Programme

After Kampala's heavy downpour, planners now advise Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) on drainage—yet they skip grassroots planning. Unplanned developments in wetlands worsen the crisis. @EcoDevelopify #KampalaFloods #UrbanPlanning

Uganda faces rising pollution from unregulated waste disposal, vehicle emissions, and industrial discharges—threatening air, water, and soil quality. At Beaver EnviroTech, we develop practical solutions to prevent and remediate pollution, building a cleaner, healthier Uganda.

@beaverenvirotec Proper waste management through the 6Rs, is crucial to growing sustainable environments. Kudos to @beaverenvirotec for highlighting recycling and redesigning waste through innovative solutions as a way to attaining SDG 11
