A new report by Twaweza reveals a stark reality: 86% of Ugandans acknowledge the impacts of climate change in their daily lives. The report highlights not only the consequences but also the potential causes, pointing a finger at human activities for environmental degradation.

"Despite differences in age, location, and background," the report states,"Ugandans overwhelmingly agree that climate change is a pressing issue directly affecting their lives." The report also emphasizes the need to transition away from firewood as a primary cooking fuel, acknowledging the challenges but stressing the environmental benefits.

This report coincides with World Press Freedom Day, prompting Joe Kigozi, Vice Chairperson of the National Association of Broadcasters and Chief Strategy Officer at Next Media, to call for increased media focus on environmental issues.
