Local Responses to Global Ecological and Environmental Challenges

Since the late 90s, the Niger Delta of the Federal Republic of Nigeria

has been faced with many ecological threats. These include cholera

outbreak, Lassa fever, oil spillage, black soot and flooding, among others.

However, this essay focuses on black soot, oil spillage and flooding in

three communities in Rivers State, one of the six states in the Niger Delta.

These communities are most affected among the state's total of over one

hundred. Their names are Aluu, Rumuolumeni, and K-Dere communities.
