PROJECT NAME

Think Green

INTRODUCTIONEnvironmental issues in Lagos are one of the most critical

problems facing its communities. A very big part of this problem is

because of the bad attitude by the communities themselves. The

problem is getting out of hand and it is affecting people’s health.

Now that Lagos is the most polluted city in Nigeria, this epidemic

has the potential to become worse if not contained and

eradicated. Hence the THINK GREEN project is focused on helping

communities understand simple methods in which we can

eventually have a sustainable environment.

VISIONTo create environmentally conscious neighborhoods through sensitization

amongst young people.
