We could not manage to get newspaper but our teacher Mr. Rutta Evodius brought article from DAILY NEWS paper of August 2009 with a climate change article “Rising temperatures threaten livelihoods”.

a) Direct problems that have been mentioned are the rapid melting of ice caps in Rwenzori Mountains of Uganda where it reported that ice caps in this mountain are melting so fast and it appears they can disappear in few years to come. The article also talks about negative impacts of climate change including capacity for electricity generation which then threatens livelihoods.

b)Solutions proposed include the Ministry of Environment has prepared National Adaptation Plan of Action(NAPA) to mitigate the situation.

c)The newspaper have given articles about climate change a priority as they are printed in the front pages to enable everyone read about climate change.

d) The headline that caught my eye is “Rising temperatures threaten livelihoods” because it talks about the impacts of climate change to people’s livelihoods.

e) The headline I would give an article about climate change would be “The role of youths in mitigating climate change in Tanzania.”
