- The natural forest at the segment of Southeastern state (Cross River State) is losing its primary status due to various types of human development and industrial activities. This is more envisaged with dry process Kiln method that United Cement Company of Nigeria (UNICEM) intend to use for manufacturing of Cement, which will leave the particulate emission rate of cement as high as 20.8Kg / bbl on the atmosphere. Other environmental pollution problems associated with this activity are bad odour, noise, dust and fumes, aesthetic nuisance, smoke, vibration, effluent and glare. A total of eighty-two tree species among which are some economic species were recorded during the assessment. Diversity Indices of between 0.03 and 1.33 were recorded for the vegetations. Many of the trees are medicinal with the barks and roots used for the treatment of diseases such as malaria, diarrhea, High blood pressure, and skin diseases. Others are cultivated for food, and as ornaments. No disease symptoms were found on the plants within the factory site except that most of the lower plants were dehydrated due to lack of rain. Some of the Rhizophora leaves along the coastline showed some leaf spots, yellowing of leaves and the presence of downy meadews. In conclusion, the industrial activity of UNICEM will in no doubt have impact on habitat vegetation of wildlife species; such species will be compelled to migrate or face mortality. And greater concern must be given to endangered and endemic species such as Pan troglodytes (Chimpanzee), Gorilla gorilla, and Pandrillus leucophaeus that can only be found in this rain forest zone of Cross River National Park. 1 results 1

- Waste of energy (WTE) is a renewable and environmentally sound process that has been proven to provide reliable electricity generation in developed and developing nations. This study was carried out to evaluate the WTE potential of municipal solid waste (MSW) in Ibadan metropolis, Characterization, and proximate analysis of representative MSW samples collected in year 2014 at two dumpsites (Ajakanga and Aba Eku) were carried out in accordance with standard procedures. Food wastes constituted 39%, the highest component of the MSW The net calorific value was evaluated to be 22.5 MJ/kg. The energy potential per annum was evaluated as 2d GW for approximate total waste of 447 thousand tones generated and disposed in Ibadan in year 2012. The energy potential in MSW could be harnessed to address the energy shortfall in the city 1 results 1
