Our post-industrial culture and skill have enhanced the stride of our lives and man’s desire to exploit mother earth has multiplied tenfold that it cannot be quenched by world water bodies.

    Conserving traditional knowledge may help us conserve nature.

    Environmental conservation is not a recent phenomenon in native African communities. Past generations knew about environmental degradation and the need for preservation. This found expression in traditional religious practices simply because the African believes that everything that belongs to the ecosystem and the environment has a strong spiritual meaning for humans. Indeed the African’s attitude to nature is deeply rooted in the belief that all things were created by the Supreme Being for a harmonious continuity, and as such there must be a relationship of mutual obligations between all created things.
