نویسندگان

چکیده

Climate change has emerged as a global issue and one of the world's most pressing environmental challenges. Despite contribution cement industry to releases carbon dioxide (the significant contributor GHG emissions) in Nigeria, only few research writing focused on its influence climate change. This paper, therefore, studied variation concentration (CO2) within environment Dangote Obajana Cement Plant. The CO2 data used for study were collected from European Space Agency website. satellite image downloaded Google Earth digitized extract area using WGS1984 geographic coordinate system while ArcMap packages processing. annual descriptive statistics years 2003, 2008, 2018, showed that minimum mean was 373.451.07, 382.92054, 0.950.17 maximum 374.931.0, 384.780.69, 0.970.17. Bartlett's test equal variances, with chi-squares 103.44 12.33, probability (Prob>chi2) value 0.001 established emissions variances are significantly different. Bonferroni revealed all had different another their p-value less than 0.05 emission occurring 2018 2008. concluded Plant's operation release concentrations across areas insignificant since there no uniformity concentrations.
