Meterological public education information is highly significant in a country that constantly experience heavy rain storms. Indeed, with the depletion of the ozone layers because of humanity's constant polution of the enviroment through the expulsion of carbon-monoxide and green house gases is a problem all well meaning leaders need to give serious attention. Hence, I say bravo madam President, because this situation is responsible for the climate change that is going on all over the world. moreover, now is the time for young Liberian to make informed decision about considering the meterological field.
