ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND CLIMATE VARIABILITY IN NIGERIA: IMPLICATIONS FROM ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES IN NIGERIA
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Study
The background of this study delves into the intricate relationship between energy consumption and climate variability in Nigeria, highlighting the implications stemming from the country's economic activities. Nigeria, as one of Africa's most populous nations and a key player in the continent's economy, faces pressing challenges at the intersection of energy use and climate change.
Nigeria's energy landscape is predominantly fueled by fossil fuels, primarily oil and natural gas, which power various sectors such as electricity generation, transportation, and industries (IEA, 2021). However, this heavy reliance on fossil fuels contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, exacerbating climate variability and environmental degradation (World Bank, 2020).
Climate variability in Nigeria manifests in diverse forms, including alterations in temperature, precipitation patterns, and the incidence of extreme weather events like floods, droughts, and heatwaves (Adeniyi et al., 2019). These climatic shifts pose substantial challenges to sectors crucial for Nigeria's economy, including agriculture, water resources, health, and infrastructure.
Economic activities in Nigeria are intricately linked to both energy consumption and climate variability. Sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing, and transportation heavily depend on energy availability and are sensitive to climate conditions (Ajibade et al., 2018). Energy-intensive industries require stable and affordable energy sources to sustain operations, while climate-sensitive sectors like agriculture and water resources face vulnerabilities to changing climatic conditions.
Understanding the nexus between energy consumption and climate variability in Nigeria is imperative for guiding policy decisions and sustainable development strategies. The implications of energy consumption patterns on climate variability and vice versa have profound consequences for Nigeria's socioeconomic development, environmental sustainability, and resilience to climate change impacts.
By investigating the complex interactions between energy systems, climate dynamics, and economic activities, this study aims to provide critical insights into potential mitigation and adaptation strategies. These strategies seek to mitigate the adverse effects of energy-related emissions on
