The Lagos State Government has unveiled the Lagos State Greenhouse Gas Registry (LGHGR), positioning the megacity as the first sub-national government in Nigeria to build a comprehensive system for tracking its carbon footprint.
The unveiling, held at the Central Business District in Alausa, Ikeja, drew a room thick with relevance: Commissioner for Health Professor Akin Abayomi, members of the State Executive Council, representatives of the Federal Ministry of Environment, development partners, TPHG Technologies, diplomats, business leaders, academics, civil society, and press.
