Even though the Clean Development Mechanism, CDM, of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, UNFCCC, began three years ago in Kwale, Delta State, with the aim of mopping up all associated gas from oil prospecting communities that would otherwise be flared, investigations reveal that apart from the gas flaring threat, there are other less known factors that exacerbate climate change, increasing the risk that West African cities close to the coast will soon be submerged...
