The headline that caught my eye and impressed us is "Two-degree rise ever more likely, scientists warn" as it talks about new studies that show the continue rising of global temperature.

 

An article we would like to give on climate change article would be "Do we need to close industries to fight climate change?"

Asked by: Kantonsschule Alpenquai 6Wc | Dar es Salaam, Secondary School

A key issue in the debate on climate change is how muchwill it cost to reduce Greenhousegas emission levels. Many believe that the cost of delay is much higher than the cost of immediate action. We have to analyse dispassionately (NO EMOTIONS!) where the good niches to act exist and where the obstacles lie, both technically and personally . We need to study sustainable development approaches around the world that have succeeded and failed, and draw lessons about the way to proceed further.

We would like to tell the industrilized countries to reduce their CO2 emissions to the atmosphere help poor countries in fighting climate change impacts.

We use public buses famous known as Dala Dala that are accessible in every corner of the city and the county to go to work and to school (see picture). Paying for Dala Dala per trip is 250 Tanzania shillings but this sometimes change depending on the distance you travel. There are no alternative public transport but in some regions especially in rural areas people walk and use bicycles to travel from one place and another.Getting to work or school and back during rush hours is a nightmare in Dar es Salaam. In their effort to reach office or school early, some city residents, including motorists and school children, are forced to wake up as early as 4 in the morning to beat the traffic jam.

Dala Dalas are a cross between a taxi and a bus. Dala-dalas get their name from the Swahili slang “dala,” meaning five. Years ago the fare was five shillings, so the conductors would shout out “dala dala”...thus the name. Now the price is higher, but still less than 25 cents US to go anywhere. Dala-dalas have sort of fixed (but not really) route - they pick up people along the way and stop anywhere if you shout loud enough. They usually are very crowded, so getting in and out is quite a task. Many times the Dala-dala are filled with everything from goats to the daily market produce to the latest entrepreneurial venture of the day. People wanting to board must act fast and hold their position to gain access to the shared Dala-dala as everyone is usually fighting for their space.

Toll collectors are termed "mpigadebe" - literally, 'a person who hits a debe' (a 4 gallon tin container used for transporting gasoline or water). This is in reference to the fact that they are often hitting the roof and side of the van to attract customer attention and to notify the driver when to leave the station.

Currently the government has no laws that force people to stop climate change, but the government through Vice President Office-Division of the Environment has prepared National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) that aims on identifying and developing immidiate and agent NAPA activities to adapt climate change and climate variability as well as increase public awarenes to climate change impacts and adaptation activities in communities, civili society and government officials. NAPA has been prepared by Vice President Office-Division of Environment in collaboration with United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and Global Environment Facility in January 2007.
