According to the EPA Focal Point for Climate Action Empowerment (ACE), Teddy P. Taylor, Climate Saturday is a new platform aimed at promoting a climate smart and sensitive generation to boost the effort in creating awareness on the growing effects of climate change. Mr. Taylor said Climate Saturday will be a monthly event bringing together community members to discuss issues bordering on climate change and the environment. “Climate Change poses significant risks to Liberia in reaching its goals for sustainable development and climate action. The EPA, and pro Youth environment organizations, with support from the World Bank are engaging the locals to form part of activities in combatting the crippling effects of climate change. Giving the impact of climate change on the sustainability of development going forward, Dr. Nthara called for young people to be at the center of discussions on climate change and the environment.
