Who are we?

FOTEFICC is a non-government organization that was founded on 28th Oct 2020 after deliberation by members with an environmental background and passion for promoting a sustainable environment.  With 2020 having been recorded as the warmest year, the group agreed that it was time to put up a real fight against climate change. The fight against climate change would not just be a one of action, thus the group grabbed the opportunity to come up the organization united by a common purpose; exploring and tapping into the opportunities lying within climate change.

Consequently, to be able to outline the objectives, the group relied on The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports to understand the trends and come up with adaptive and mitigating ways to curb the impacts. The year 2020 experienced firsthand the ways that more heat is expressed on our planet. The large wildfires and intense hurricanes experienced in 2020 are direct consequences of human-induced climate change. And they’re projected to continue and escalate into the next decade – especially if human-induced greenhouse gas emissions continue at the current rate. It is for this reason that the group agreed to register FOTEFFIC as an NGO riding on a slogan “limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius”  Thus, the fight is not just for us to for other generations to come.
