The role of environmental chemistry as a solution for bridging disciplines and solving complex African challenges: A case study of Northern Nigeria
Article Abstract
Sustainable development in Africa faces numerous challenges, including environmental degradation, resource depletion, and socio-economic inequalities. Environmental chemistry, as an interdisciplinary field, offers critical insights and solutions to these problems by addressing pollution, waste management, and resource efficiency. This paper explores the role of environmental chemistry in fostering sustainable development, particularly in northern Nigeria. It examines how integrating environmental chemistry with other disciplines can enhance the effectiveness of sustainable practices, proposing a framework for collaborative efforts among scientists, policymakers, and local communities.
