IT'S EVERYONE'S DUTY TO PROTECT AND PRESERVE THE ENVIRONMENT



The environment is so vital vital in our lives because it supports our daily lives and living standards. It is therefore a great need to protect it from destroyers or the threats it receives on a daily basis. 
As a concerned or patriotic citizen, what have you done or put in place to have the environment protected or conserved. Under the 1995 Uganda constitution, one of the fundamental role of a citizen of Uganda is being loyal to his or her country so as to promote the well being of everyone in the communities we live in. 
Further more, the national objectives and directive priciples of state policy under the 1995 constitution says it all that we ought to be the changers of our own communities and therefore from the main principle law of Uganda we observe that we are given a rensponsibilty of making sure that we live in a clean environment and this we should do it by establishing sometsomething that will specifically be used to conserve and protect the environment. Article 17 (j) of The 1995 Uganda Constitution  The government won't completely do the one hundred perfection you inspect  it to do but rather we as individuals, it's our duty to have the one hundred perfection we expect from the government be done by ourselves. Forexeample we or you as youth/individual what have you put in place to grolify the existence of the environment. It is therefore a great challenge to us to at all times create something thathat entirely defends nature/environment. Let's not sir back and look on as nature is being destroyed.
The right to a clean environment doesn't belong to a specific group of people but rather to everyone thus giving us a role to play when it comes to protecting and conserving the environment. To exercise the enjoyment of our rights, we to participate in different engagements that will contribute to the well being of the communities we live in. Away from the main principle law that governs Uganda, Uganda is a signatory to international laws that have emphasised different groups of people in the participation of environment preservation and protection e.g The Protocol to The African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights of Women in Africa, it brings women on board on board to indulge themselves in the move to participate in environment management and preservation with the help of the government. (Article 18(2)(a)(b), Article 33 of the 1995 Uganda constitution. In today's world there is urgent need for more youth inclusive and youth responsive in environmental action to figure out the misappropriated and impacts of climate change in order to devise means of solving them. 
Our aspirations shouldn't only be in things we tend to give more time e.g. fashion and design but hover the environs also be an aspirations that will enable us all benefit from it by working on on it. If we would like to save the coming generations, our biggest thoughts should be aggressively be projected to having the envenvironment keep into existence. 
The young and the old, it's our duty to transform our socities into better places to live in. 
Environment is everyone's rerensponsibilty to protect but not everyone's priority to destroy
